So it may turn out that torture was a waste of time regardless if you approve of torture.

Quote:
A report that could be released concerning CIA interrogation and detention
practices is "not the Holy Grail" and shouldn't be politicized, House Intelligence Chairman Mike Rogers said, accusing former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of making politically charged comments about former Vice President Dick Cheney.

Pelosi and Rogers appeared on CNN's "State of the Union" on
separate segments, but she hit a hot button issue by complaining that Cheney
"set the tone" at the agency during former President George W. Bush's
administration.

The report, which will likely be declassified in upcoming weeks after the Senate voted to
release it this past week, is expected to be highly critical of some of
the CIA's practices following the 9/11 attacks.

I love hearing a politician tell the public not to politicize something.

They are talking about releasing this report this week, it doesn't make sense to me. If releasing this report is going to cause widespread unrest and put Americans lives at stake, then why do it. I'm sure the terrorist groups are waiting to hear the details also, so they can use that as another excuse to behead people.

Oh noes! The republicans don't want this politicized!

People should have been charged over this stuff. People should be in prison.
