Reply #7: Torture is a line that once crossed [View All]

[ninkasi]

leads to nothing but ruin and destruction. Once that line is crossed, we will have no moral compass to guide us, no standard to look up to, nothing that sets us apart from the others. If Bush gets his way, we will have lived to see the end of a democratic America, to be replaced by a far, far uglier, and more dangerous country.

For those of you who believe, may God have mercy on us, if we can't stop this sociopath. If not enough of us care, then the rest of us will be doomed to share the fate of the minority. An America which has strayed so far from the borders of civilized behavor, and ethical behavior, is not the America I was born in. I will consider my options, moving to another country, or trying to help in the fight to protect the America I have known for over sixty years. My prayers now are that what I do will help others.
