What now? Is there ANYBODY in Congress who cares? -- bamage
Your comment takes for granted that Congress is at all relevant anymore. They aren't. There are probably a few (very few from what I have seen) in congress who do care but as for the congress as a whole, well, they simply no longer matter really. For the most part they simply refuse to act on their oversight responsibilities and, when they do, their subpoenas are ignored and their investigations end up nowhere, resulting in nothing. Watch what happens when they get the torture planners together... nothing will happen and no one will be detained and charged. Congress is irrelevant and they have allowed themselves to become so. Just like we the people have.
