Torture weakened America's national security - John "The American Hero" Kerry

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Thursday was an important day for the rule of law in the United States of America.

With a handful of signatures to executive orders, President Obama ordered the eventual closure of Guantanamo Bay prison and CIA "black site" prisons, and placed interrogation in all American facilities by all U.S. personnel under the guidelines of the Army Field Manual.

In a season of transformational changes, these are among the most meaningful, because they send a powerful message that America's struggle against terrorism will once against honor some of the most cherished ideals of our republic: respect for the rule of law, individual rights, and America's moral leadership.

ohhhhh so that is what this is....feeling safer!!!

Let us pray that Mr. Kerry is correct, and that our lack of being attacked here at home the last 7 years had nothing to do with the terrorists fear of that dolt Bush or his tortuous ways!!!
