This is not a "left" or "right" issue. It is an issue of the United States' behavior on the world stage.
Torture goes against the founding principles of this country, and you are spitting venom on those principles. Congratulations. There IS NO reasoning for the United States to engage in practices that even vaguely resemble what a Communist regime would do. I'm sorry that "bores" you.
The current foreign policy tries to "spread democracy" through promotion. It doesn't work- it has to be done through attraction, not promotion. Living examples speak volumes, words are just words.
