‘While the Obama administration is turning its back on some Bush administration practices, Panetta said there is no intention to hold CIA officers responsible for the policy they were told to carry out. CIA interrogators who used waterboarding or other harsh techniques against prisoners with the permission of the White House should not be prosecuted, he said.’
Do not be misled in that Obama says he is going to stop renditions. Obama plans to keep the US troops in other peoples’ countries and many of the ‘natives’ will get turned over to others for torture, ‘rendition flights’ or not. CIA nominee says no ‘extraordinary rendition’- Panetta wants CIA to find bin Laden; says don’t prosecute waterboarders

The New York Times actually says that Panetta said he would use torture again whenever he or Obama feels like it. And this is CHANGE?

To think that all the Peacecrats deliberately demobilized themselves in all other activities other than voting to go out and get this sort of thing by their votes! They were warned by many but just refused to listen because they wanted CHANGE on the cheap.
