Prof. Jacobsen sums it up.
Here's my prediction of what will happen if Democrats push the investigation to the bitter end causing damage to national security, a political death match with the CIA, and Democrat-on-Democrat finger pointing:
Stenny Hoyer, Speaker; Jane Harman, Majority Leader; Nancy Pelosi, Chair of the House sub-committee on fresh water fisheries; Republicans, unexpected gains in 2010 mid-term elections.
The Democrats wished hard for an investigation into waterboarding and other interrogation methods. They may have wished too hard, because they are about to get what they wished for, with no way out.
It's the dream-scenario for the Pubbies, who claim, consistently, that aggressive interrogations enhanced our national security. Even Chuckles Schumer (D) gets that--and he's damn worried about it.
