As a former member of the Republican party, I&#8217;m ecstatic that I got out when I did. The continued defense of torture, especially when we now know more of the details, the fact that they didn&#8217;t produce results, the fact that it led our investigations on false leads (as I predicted)&#8230;. To say I&#8217;m appalled would be an understatement of tortured proportions. As long as Rush, Hannity and Thompson et. al. are leading the Republican media machine, that party will never regain my vote. Here is McCain explaining why we can&#8217;t torture. It&#8217;s something I teach my students. Actions have consequences. Now THAT is REAL logic.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/imIMJjhHqQQ&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/imIMJjhHqQQ&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>PS.
