What a difference a year, and a change of administration, makes. It appears as though South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham changes his arguments more often than he changes his suit and tie.

Holy cow….LOL Well you got something here with this. Would love to hear his explanation on this John Kerry-esque flip flop.
So we can break the law because were good guys? Fail to see the logic here.
You better hope you are never identified by someone as “their enemy” then deprived of any habius corpus or other rights because you “might” be a terrorist, then tortured to confirm their suspicions….and if you don’t think that can happen….you better re read the Patriot Act.
Ouch, I hope I don’t flip flop like this guy!
So let me say here and now, unequivocally, water boarding done to our enemies in order to protect my family, (all of whom don’t chop peoples heads off becasue they don’t agree with our way of life,) is ok.
Done by anyone else to us, is wrong, because we, are the good guys.
This is no difference than many positions taken by the shifting sands which the radical right has built it’s “firm foundation” of principles. When you have to make it up as you go along, it always seems to show.
