Why do Feinstein and Wyden sound much different on the torture issue now?

The two Senators spent the year emphatically insisting that the CIA's interrogators comply with the Army Field Manual. With Democrats in control, they're not so emphatic any longer

    PDA, I think I understand Adnoto's point...

    Let me see if I can elucidate:

    You are all just sitting around writing on blogs. So am I. But if there was a revolution I'd be out there sticking it to the man, and you guys would just be sitting here writing on blogs, like this guy Greenwald, who writes a lot of stuff about how both Republicans and Democrats are screwing things up, which means that he wants the Democrats to be in charge and wants them to kill women and babies and also that he's in love with Obama.

    I would be the hero of the revolution and everything. That's the way it would be, if everything was right (see impractical hypothetical scenarios thread). So I don't have to actually read anything anyone writes here to call you all a bunch of cowards, becuase its obvious, from what I just wrote that you are. And you're all too cowardly to address any of the points I've made here. Because you're cowards. But not me. You're just going to have to take my word on that.
