re: #635 Killgore Trout

I don’t think so. To me it’s an indication of silly over the top hyperpartisanship. Waterboarding is a worthy topic but I tune out as soon as I see fantasies of rounding up the Bush regime. It’s just stupid.

To me, the best analogy is places like South Africa and Northern Ireland. They still have a bunch of problems to work through. But a big part of what they have done right is recognizing that what went on in the past was wrong, and that it should be avoided in the future.

I’m a realist, I don’t think the Bush people are going to go to jail for what they did. But denying that crimes were committed is disgusting. Again, if it had been your kid that got tortured and killed for nothing, without any kind of apology or reason given, you would probably think differently.
