Bob Herbert Dares to Keep Talking About the Torture

It's Called Torture:

"As a nation, does the United States have a conscience? Or is anything and everything O.K. in post-9/11 America? If torture and the denial of due process are O.K., why not murder? When the government can just make people vanish - which it can, and which it does - where is the line that we, as a nation, dare not cross?

Thank you, Mr. Herbert, sir.

And to everyone out there who says "But you can't think of emigrating! America is the greatest country on earth!" I reply "I don't want to be a torturer. Do you?" And if you don't, then perhaps you'd better take a long look in the mirror. Because you are.
