I didn't mean to say that torture was okay. All I meant to say was that if the CIA practiced it, it wouldn't make one lick of difference if the general population was as equally reprobate.

If a people abandons their conscience and gives themselves over to "self", it wont be long before a like minded person becomes a head of state, and then where will that lead?

Unfortunately that is the kind of people who want to run for office. The people who don’t want to run are probably those best equipped to run this country. Colin Powel and Condoleezza Rice would make great presidents, but they don’t want to be president. We end up with the next best runner-ups.

I agree and I believe that has already begun.
