Silly, silly Beltway Dems
Leahy again at the Gonzales hearings:
Obviously, the real question is whether US leaders (not "other world leaders") would have "authority to authorize the torture of U.S. citizens"... Oh, wait, it can't happen here...
Silly, silly Beltway Dems! That anthrax scare after 9/11 must have put them in a permanent fetal position!
LEAHY: How about this way: Do you think that other world leaders would have authority to authorize the torture of U.S. citizens if they deemed it necessary for their national security?
GONZALES: Senator, I don't know what laws other world leaders would be bound by. And I think it would -- I'm not in a position to answer that question.
