Dear President Obama,
I want to address the issue of torture. For me it is not an issue of punishing the guilty or making political points. It is getting our country back to the rule of law, sustaining the Constitution, and un-tarnishing our reputation in the world. We've seen how fragile our democracy is and how warped it can become in eight short years.
I urge you to support and press for a non-partisan commission (like the 9/11 Commission) or independent prosecutor to find the truth, assess responsibility, and admit mistakes we made. Then we can move forward as a world leader.
I'm not excited about trials or prison time for the guilty; history will shame those responsible.
I thank God every day that you are our President.
