(8,322 posts)about the report -- not stunned me, because pretty much every bit of it did that -- but surprised me (because I did not anticipate it) was how quickly it became a partisan issue.
Even Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham spoke against it (torture, not the timing of the report).
But their sycophants have not. Quite the opposite. Tell me I was naive not to anticipate that, okay. I still don't get it. And this from the party of family and moral values, mind you.
