I didn't say I agreed with torture; in fact, my position that it is useless means that I do not support it because it serves only to waste time...erm, unless you are into that sort of thing.
What kind of country would we live in where we are afraid of denying false charges against us? I suspect that if we don't get our government under control we are going to find out.

I know you disagree with it.. I read your response there about how you opposed it and said that I agree with ya. I was just giving my thoughts on why I also oppose it.
As for the military screaming security issues, it does happen alot. But, if there was a big enough clamor, they too would be ordered to open up. Classified only works for so long, as we have seen in many high court cases. But yes, it is their first defense to deter any whistleblowers, absolutely. This needs to be flayed open.
