The chief of staff to former Secretary of State Colin Powell says that the Bush Administration authorized torture of detainees before even rendering a legal opinion on the practice — and that they sought to torture detainees in an effort to produce intelligence tying Iraq to al Qaeda.
Yes, it will be a HUGE distraction to investigate the former administration for their crimes, but not doing so would be a HUGE miscarriage of justice.
