We are using law as cover-up, hitting at little guy "just taking orders" in War on Terror. When a nation of laws, no one is above them and, more importantly, the little guy following orders is not the scapegoat.

That it is more important to you that Cheney might be damaging the Republican Party by his comments about torture than that your country had a policy of deliberately torturing people? Or that your country has scapegoated low level soldiers while rewarding those who ordered the torture? Or that no American, so far as I know, has even thought of recompensing the victims for what was done to them? Regards, Alex Is this what America has come to?
