What he said!

RE: The Torture Agreement

Hullabaloo: "Kudos to Digby for calling this exactly right from the start. Shame, shame, shame on the cowards in both parties that permitted this disgracefully grotesque farce to happen. This is as inexcusable a stupidity as the neglect that permittted the 9/11 attacks, the idiotic reasoning and intellectual blindness that advocated and executed the Bush/Iraq war, and the failure to prepare for Katrina. What the hell is going on, that a country that prides itself on its heritage of freedom and liberty, that fought such an awful war over the degrading enslavement of human beings - that such a country would vote to permit some of the most repulsive and evil practices human beings are capable of and place the power to do so directly in the hands of a moral midget?"

The shame and anger at what has become of America is overwhelming this day. The anger is not only focused on the republicans who went along with this farce because they are republicans after all. No, the lion's share of the anger and shame is reserved for the democrats who would not, could not find the backbone to stand for America and say ENOUGH!

There is not much pride in being an American this day.
