You can believe that Pelosi and the whole American public underwent a radical transformation from moral normality to complicity with war criminality back to normality. Or you can believe that their personalities and moral compasses have remained steady throughout the years, but changes in circumstances (threat, knowledge, imminence) alter the moral calculus attached to any interrogation technique.

You don't need a psychiatrist to tell you which of these theories is utterly fantastical.

Whoa!!...Good shot from Krauthammer ....a professional psychiatrist.

He looks like my image of a psychiatrist in that picture.

No I believe a different scenario. I believe that Pelosi is playing politics. She is using the moral issue of torture to attack the former administration for political advantage.

The people have short memories. Pelosi knows this and the Left Wing press is her willing accomplice most of the time.
