Byron York, in a column on NRO today..quotes Scchumer as saying that torture is OK..Cornyn is already puting out a warning to the Dems...to me the GOP is finally acting like the party running the place..

Cronyn is doing a good job of discrediting the criticism Gonzales has gotten over the Geneva Convention memo, explaining that non-signers (like terrorists) don't get the benefit off Geneva Convention rules.

From this link:

All this parsing doesn't seem to bother Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, an antiterrorism hard-liner who tried to give Ashcroft some breathing room. Schumer suggested to his colleagues on the committee that "there are very few people in this room or in America who would say that torture should never, ever, be used, particularly if thousands of lives are at stake."
