Breaking Loose

All hell appears to be breaking loose, thanks to the breath-of-fresh-air Administration allowing America to get honest about the torture policy done in our name. Yep, now the evidence is in that Rice & Cheney personally approved the torture so now all of them and their cohorts are moving into CYA mode. That's your firestorm -- the firestorm of the guilty.

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) is talking traditional Senate probe and even retired four-star General Barry McCaffrey is calling for an investigation of the Bush White House on all this torture.

It's even leaking into Fox News, thanks to Shepherd Smith:



But the best clip of the day was the one that made me fall in love with our new Secretary of State all over again:



Not much daylight between Sec. Clinton and Pres. Obama. Just try wedging them, Mike Pence -- she's not having any.

So the question is, how big is this moment going to be?

So Much for the "Ticking Time Bomb":I'm not an expert on intel gathering, but isn't the fact that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was waterboarded 183 times in one month proof that torture doesn't work?

(Hell, why didn't they just buy him his own swimming pool?)
