Well, since Bush says there is no torture, there is no torture.  That
was easy.  Repeatedly trusting a Republican and expecting different
results is the sign of insanity.  :-)  

Of course "what the law and Constitution permit and require" to a
Republican is that the president has absolute power to ignore the
Constitution.  All doublespeak.  Republicans have no credibility.  No
one they nominate has any credibility either.  All lies,
misstatements, and misrepresentations.  There is always fine print in
what they say.  The only exit strategy that a Republican has is
exiting from their promise.  Trusting a Republican to run a government
is like trusting a Nazi to run a bar mitzvah.
