That’s the bottom line, from near the bottom of Mark Benjamin’s column.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, who had earlier been a big advocate of a special commission investigating torture and its advocacy, meekly issued a statement yesterday applauding Obama for releasing CIA memos while not even mentioning the idea of such a commission.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
