Some, however, are more affected than others. As far as a society goes, torture is like an acid eating through the institutions of a democratic society. <BR/><BR/>As for being a frustrated aged poet... is there any other kind? Even Yeats felt that way. If you read Milton (the intros to the Paradise Lost cantos), you get some of the same impression. Then there's Bukowski. I could go on and on.

The men who tortured will be hounded by the law, international and national, as well as civil, for the rest of their lives. Bush's fantasy laws will not be respected.<BR/><BR/>Such a shame, torture being such a cancer to the democratic ideal.<BR/><BR/>And it really doesn't make a man popular, you know?<BR/><BR/>Too bad for them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
