That's the kind of arguments they're using to get the bill passed. I don't like this bill, I don't like the way the debate has gone. It doesn't change the fact that there are people who trust the military to not torture people and don't believe the Constitution extends to foreigners, especially in a time of war. That's the reality we're dealing with and beating up 160 good Democrats because a portion of our country thinks that way is flat stupid. This isn't a party problem - it's generally a regional problem, same bunch who always vote with Republicans.
