We have people who want a law against torture because they assure us it
could be violated in extraordinary circumstance (the a-bomb and
terrorist example) yet when some laws are violated in extraordinary
circumstances they want to criticize. They seem to strive to be
consistently inconsistent.
It would seem more logical to me that those who want a law against
torture, expecting it to be violated in extraordinary circumstance
would have few problems with a violation of another law in a very
similar extraordinary circumstance.


Perhaps if your president was honest about it, it wouldn't be such an issue.
Actually, he *will* be honest about it, as soon as Uncle Karl tells him to.
