Democrat gets it right!

"I think the interrogations were in violation of the Geneva Conventions and the convention against torture that we ratified under President Reagan," . . . . "I think these interrogations, once publicized, helped al Qaeda recruit. I got that from an al Qaeda operative in a prison camp in Iraq... I think that the ability of us to work with our allies was harmed. And I believe that information, according go the FBI and others, could have been gained through other members."
Yep. Exactly right. These comments were made in the face of Dick Cheney's "tour of torture" on Fox News defending his policies and trying to paint the Democrats as partisans for going after people who BROKE THE LAW in torturing prisoners.

Who said the quote above then? Demo- Oops. Republican John McCain.

Of course, what does that guy know about torture?
