…but I would be too if the Attorney General was trying his best not to answer a very simple question. I just love Michael Mukasey trying to explain away George W. Bush‘s violations of federal law under the guise of his authority as President under Article Two of the Constitution. I guess Arlen Specter asked [...]

At the beginning of January, I asked the question, “What is torture?” in response to Charlie Sykes’ assertion that waterboarding isn’t really torture, or that maybe it is, but he’d support it as long as it worked, and so when I came across this little nugget on YouTube, I couldn’t help but be reminded of [...] First of all, a tip of the hat to Michael Mathias at Pundit Nation for this story.
