TheHill.com - A glaring lack of outrage

TheHill.com - A glaring lack of outrage: "In the days following Sept. 11, 2001, no one really knew what to expect next and both the White House and Congress were ready to do whatever might be needed to protect the American people from another terrorist attack.

We now know that Department of Justice lawyers began feverishly crafting new rules governing the interrogation of terrorists and that when these rules were revealed to Democratic and Republican congressional leaders, none of them questioned the need for what the lawyers called “enhanced” interrogation techniques. Congress wanted to know if the methods being contemplated were tough enough."
