Fair And Balanced

Just to show that I'm not reflexively opposed to everything Dianne Feinstein does, she is on the floor of the Senate right now leading the fight in getting the entire US government to follow the Army Field Manual for interrogations and intelligence gathering, which would effectively ban waterboarding and any other forms of torture from being used by the CIA.  She has worked very hard on this issue, and it looks like she'll get passage in the Senate on this today.  That's very significant.
