Simply saying "what's done is done" regarding those that called for torturing enemy combatants, without any prosecution is despicable. The law is the end itself, it's not something anyone, not even a president can manipulate. It is not malleable.All political questions are not equal no matter how much you pivot. When people die or lose their physical freedom to feed certain economic sectors or ideologies, it becomes a zero sum game for me.
Why we allow our politicians to dictate what is and what is not the current "talking point" is maddening. We decide, not them.
