Thank You, Eric Holder

I don't care about the sketchy pardons. I do care that a maybe soon-to-be public official said in public what everyone knows: water boarding is torture. I am sick of the present (not for very much longer) administration using every justification they can for torture when practically every single person who has studied torture tells the same story-people being tortured will tell you anything you want to hear in order to make you stop hurting them. If you actually want the truth, sit down and talk to them. As repugnant as it may be, everyone has a story and everyone wants their story to be heard and terrorists are no exception to this.
I am just grateful that an American said out loud at a congressional hearing something many people have known for a long time.
Water boarding is torture.
