Senate laments its inaction on torture...

Okay, that is not today's headline, today's headline is Senate laments its inaction on lynching "The Senate apologized Monday for never having outlawed lynching, which from 1880 to 1960 took the lives of more than 4,700 people, most of them Blacks."

I assume the best for America. And assuming that America comes to its senses at some point, is there any doubt that the Senate AND the House will need to apologize at some point for allowing the current Administration to lead America down the path to torture, disappearing people and denying justice to people merely by applying the label of Terrorist to them?

Too bad these people who claim to represent us can't see their actions in the way that history will judge them: it will judge them harshly for standing by while human rights are abused to "fight terrorism". (Just consider that again, human rights abused to fight terrorism, it's like robbing people to fight theft or beating people to prevent assaults.)

I just hope it will take a lot less than 45 years for people to apologize this time, so America can get around to the job of FIGHTING terrorists, not BEING terrorists.
