So, what is your position today?
Approving harsh interrogation tactics, and potentially "torture" against suspected terrorists was/would be "a mistake"?

Not my position, but maybe it is the admin's position. I am not an insider and neither are you. I am just saying that the fact that someone changes their position on an issue doesn't mean they aren't committed to their principles. Now if someone is constantly changing their position based on polls or for the prospect of political gain, that is different. I don't see the current administration as doing that.

I read and listen to what the other side has to say all the time. It is not like these people aren't on TV all the time and that good summaries of what they have to say don't exist. You may have to read every fricking word someone writes to understand their point, but some of us aren't so limited.
Take Clinton's book. Do you really need to read all 950 pages of it to know what he thinks of Ken Starr? Do you have to read even 1 page of it to know what he thinks of Ken Starr?
Oh and my posts about people telling me about the parts of Clinton's book on Juanita Broderick, James Riady, and Johnny Chung were a joke. I posted that because according to several people who have read the book, Clinton left those 3 out of the book.
What a fucking joke.
If someone accused you of rape and it became a big media story, would you have left it out of your book? Not if you didn't rape the person. If you didn't rape her, you would want to tell your side of the story.
