Republicans draw their line in the sand, and that line is;

"we love torture"

Senate Republicans delayed a vote on the confirmation of Eric Holder to become attorney general for at least a week in order to pressure him to say whether he will prosecute intelligence agents for torture if they were following orders and acting within what they believed to be legal guidelines.

that’s right, they are saying;

"if you prosecute anyone for committing these war crimes we won’t confirm you"

here’s what’s really going on though;

these marionettes are getting their strings pulled even still, by their puppet master, serial moron dick Cheney.

He (in my opinion) is having them take this stand so;

1) they look like they are protecting the CIA (they are not, they are protecting Chaney’s tools)

2) to give Cheney a foundation of defense if charges are preferred against him for committing these crimes of war against our country and the planet.
