Ray McGovern: "Our Himmlers, Eichmanns Unscathed as Obama Dithers"

"Our Himmlers, Eichmanns Unscathed as Obama Dithers: Why Is He Afraid of the Torturers?" Featuring Ray McGovern "I don't want my grandchildren, of whom I have six now, coming up to me when they're old enough and saying, 'Grandpa, you worked for the CIA. What was it like torturing people?' I would say I didn't torture people, and they would say as the German kids say to their parents, 'What did you do to stop it?'" Ray McGovern was a CIA analyst for 27 years. He returned his CIA "Intelligence Commendation Award" medallion in 2006 saying "I do not wish to be associated with torture". He cofounded Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity and works with "Tell the Word", the publishing arm of the ecumenical Church of the Saviour in Washington, DC. Plus: Jon Eisenberg, the lawyer representing the plaintiffs in the famous warrantless wiretapping case Al-Haramain v. Bush. "I wonder whether Bybee feels guilty before God. He certainly has no business being a federal judge. His presence on the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals brings disgrace to that court. He should resign."
