Congress seeks justice dept. documents on interrogation.

What is clear here is that Bush and His Evil Minions^™ are objectively pro torture, and that they find torture a good thing in and of itself, and so they are using any means necessary to continue to torture.

They have to know that it does not work. They have to know that it damages the US’s reputation and ability to gather competent intelligence. They don’t care.

Ordering torture makes them feel like real men. It makes them feel virile and effective to cause needless harmful pain.
