So now will some brave soul in the Senate (HAhahahaaaaHAW!) admit that the CIA's been blackmailing them all along? Brother Lindsay, you want to start?

The nice thing about doing something shitty, then saying it's beyond the scope of reason, and then admitting to it later anyway, is that about 40% of the public lost you at "beyond the scope of reason" and remembers it right there.

...<strong>QUESTION</strong>: to all the NEOCON's that assert that torture is "legal", why would the CIA be so concerned about senators finding out about it, that they are willing to break the law and hack in their computers? <strong>SECONDLY</strong>: lemme get this straight, the Bush administration broke the law to find out whether or not the Senate knew that they were breaking the law and then technically perjured themselves to cover it up during senate hearings? Does anyone got jail in politics nowadays?!?!?

Eh, not to worry. I'm sure the CIA has learned their lesson (about not covering their tracks) and is very sorry (they got caught).
