understand that the president believes that the people who actually
administered these tactics should be immune.  I'm not sure about that. I
understand that they have a greater argument than those who created the
policies.  But those who created these legal theories, knowing full well
that there was not a reasonable argument, I'm not so sure they shouldn't be
accountable.  I don't see how we as a country say oh fine we knew this was
against international law, we knew it was against our own laws, and these
people can come up with any phony legal opinion they want.  I've read
these opinions because I'm on the intelligence committee and had access to them
much earlier than the public.  These arguments are bogus.."</span></blockquote> ]]>
