Agreed. But “dirty laundry” needs to be washed sooner or later, doesn’t it?
It’s a thorny issue, but I don’t see any good from brushing it under the rug, and I see LOTS of damage in the future if it seems that the government can basically do what it wants to whom it wants under the name of the GWOT (or whatever it’s called now).
I DO NOT TRUST THE GOVERNMENT TO HAVE THIS MUCH POWER.
Republican or Democrat, I say get it out in the open.
I want to know if the feds can do this to anyone, because if they can, they will do it to anyone.
Not to be a drama queen, but I think limits must be in place.
The other way lies real danger down the road, more than exposing it.

You don’t need to sweep anything under a rug. We can decide, independently of any past action, what we want our future actions to be.
