What a sad day for the nation when the U.S. Congress agrees, right out in the open, to condone torture. That is the ultimate reality of this Senatorial act. We have become our enemies. The country's moral fiber is unraveling and it's the neo-cons, those who preach the loudest about "morals", that are leading the way. The five Democratic senators who voted for this travesty should be thrown out of the Party. Ultimately, this horror that has become the law of the land is on the Democrats' heads. They had the opportunity to repudidate the lawlessness and outrage of this Administration but AGAIN they supported it! On that one score, the right-wing is correct. The Democrats are a bunch of spineless twits.
