Pontius Pilate x 3: 2006

This is what Pontius Pilate looked like when he condemned Christ to death. He just washed his hands and let the President do his dirty work. The President, a man without principle and without a human conscience now has a free hand to define what is torture and what is not. From the past three 5 years, we know what his definition of torture is. He does not torture people, so what has happened is not torture by his definition. He will now define what the Geneva Accord says. He will have unlimited and unaccountable permission to torture. These men should hang their heads in shame.

Senators John McCain, left; John W. Warner Jr.; and Lindsey Graham leaving a news conference Thursday after washing their hands of the torture issue, removing Presidential and Executive Branch accountability and promising to look the other way.
