re: #146 Cato the Elder

Eichmann was only following orders.

Eichmann was following deeply unethical orders from ONE MAN. The CIA was following orders from their bosses, the attorney general’s office, and tacit approval from the president himself.

As much as I dislike the extreme measures used for interrogating uncooperative high ranking prisoners, this order appears to have been entirely constitutional —which is what every such person in positions like this swears to protect.

I think President Obama made the right choice the first time. I’m outraged that he went back on his word.
