Regarding the "torture" report: Dems claim CIA mislead Bush

...and Bush has essentially backed the CIA.
Can you imagine Obama stepping up like that?

Bush is an honorable man. You cannot say that about many DEMs.

It took the Democrats in the Senate an admitted 5-1/2 years of investigation to determine that the CIA misled the President, Congress and the public. Those same Senate Democrats determined that the same CIA didn't mislead anyone about Benghazi in a matter of weeks. I'm sure they were equally thorough in both investigations.

Just takes a while to wade through the "transparency" of this administration.

I would love to know the story on the downvotes I have received. Is it embarrassment over the lack of character of the current President, or just more disdain for Bush?
For good or for ill, this willingness to abandon certain moral and constitutional limitations at a time of extreme danger to the nation's well-being is why he was able to support TARP, and other extra-constitutional responses to the 2007/08 financial meltdown.

Bush really has no choice but to back the CIA.
Regardless, I don't see this as a partisan issue. We were torturing prisoners, which is a violation of the Geneva Convention, and those doing the torturing lied to us about it. Heads should roll over this(no pun intended), and it's pretty telling that the only one that has faced consequences on it is the whistleblower.

Actually, he did and the Senate Dems gave him an out in their report. He has chosen not to take the easy way.

The current president HAS NO IDEA what constitutes having character....NONE!!!!
He is without morals or remorse for immoral behavior.

$40 Million was spent on this "report."
$40,000,000 spent on a one sided report constructed purely for political purposes but given the weight by the media of being some kind of official accounting.
Gotta love Democrats.

If the CIA lied to Bush on "toture", then did they lie to him about wmd's? So Iraq was not Bush's fault? They need to get their story straight.

The dimocratic party has become a fricking joke....they prostituted themselves for this asshat of a president...and now seem to be doubling down on stupid. There are no words for the ill will that I wish on these clowns!!

I would go ahead and say that the last 2 presidents lacked character.
The bush administration mislead the people about the threat of iraq, which is seriously lacking in character. And it started the spying on american citizens.
The president before that felt ok to cheat on his wife.
