Conyers to hold hearings on 'torture' memos By Jared Allen Posted: 04/21/09 06:07 PM [ET]
House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) on Tuesday announced that he will soon hold hearings on the Bush administration’s legal memos justifying the use of numerous enhanced interrogation techniques.
Conyers and other Democrats have labeled as torture the techniques explained in the memos, which provide a legal framework for the use of controversial interrogation practices such as waterboarding.
President Obama recently declassified the memos written by Bush administration lawyers, which also detail for the first time a number of additional interrogation techniques approved for use by the Central Intelligence Agency.
“Recently disclosed legal memoranda from the former Bush Administration raise grave legal, ethical, and constitutional questions,” Conyers said in a statement. “The use of tactics described in these memos runs counter not only to basic notions of decency, but places our own prisoners of war at risk and weakens our national security. And the fact that these memos were authored and approved by senior lawyers of the Department of Justice challenges the very notion that we adhere to the Rule of Law in this country.”

Of course there is no comment (!@#$%) as we would be banned.
Tortured logic.
If he was willing speak on the matter I'm sure he'd be saying "that's the best part".
The man has no moral authority on this or any other issue.
Let’s play Conyers speeches 24/7 as our new torture method.
We need to start keeping a tally on the dollar cost of these endless hearings and investigations. Lord knows how many millions of dollars disappear this way every year.
To paraphrase an old bit about grand juries, Conyers would investigate a ham sandwich, if it were eaten by GW, Cheney or Rove.
I hate demoncrats more every day.
Shut up Conyers you puke punk thug. Torture is having to listen to you all the time. You are a crook. Were we attacked after 9-11? We should have used harsher methods.
I support waterboarding John Conyers.
Paybacks are hell.
.
Torture is what she did to Cobo Hall and the Auto Show, they are on the verge of being Kaput because of this loon....
This whole thing is a distraction ... The country is going bankrupt, still. And liberals are doing it.
Will this be another black cockus hearing or will it be open to white people as well?
