Darn them trolls... eh rog?

BTW, rog, I gave you a thumbs up on #2. I think a lot of people have gotten into the habit of overlooking your posts or at least not recommending them because they&#039;ve written you off due to past performances...

But this time, you hit a nail!

Scotty is just like all of us and he IS attempting to paint himself innocent because now he&#039;s confessing to what he already knew, &lt;em&gt;then&lt;/em&gt;. He&#039;s just changed his position on torture recently. And yes, you are correct, he &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; either correct or he &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; not. Now &lt;strong&gt;or&lt;/strong&gt; then.

I would say he&#039;s more correct now than he was then.
... And being more correct now does in no way excuse his proliferation of the lies, then, either!

		<description>Keep it up Scotty. Tell nothing but the truth, the rest of your life, and history may remember you kindly.

Other Busites take note. The truth may not set you free, but, it will probably lighten your sentence.</description>

		<description>I read the Hitchens link (VF).  I appreciate his efforts to undergo waterboarding to determine if he thought it was torture or not.

I also found Mr. Nance&#039;s 4 point arguments (page 2 of the same link) very compelling.

That information has convinced me that regardless of whether we use it to train our own soldiers and whether it may not be comparable to torture or atrocities carried out by jihadists or terrorists; waterboarding is torture.

Thank you, Christopher Hitchens and thank you, Thinkprogress.</description>
