If you have to ask

Yahoo! News:
Specter bluntly asked Gonzales: 'Do you approve of torture?'
'Absolutely not, senator,' he responded.
If you have to ask whether someone approves of torture, you already know the answer. You're just looking to camoflouge your stamp of approval.
Still, the most disturbing exchange came from Sen. Biden:
"We're looking for candor, old buddy. I love you, but you're not very candid so far."
How clubby is D.C. when a Democratic senator from Delaware can profess his old-buddy love for a Texas Republican on the floor of the Senate?
