Democrat doesn't know how to vote, for or against torture

Here's a quote from Democratic Senator Carl Levin talking about the torture/kangaroo court bill the Republicans are planning to ram through before the end of the week:

“These are significant changes, not technical changes,” said Senator Carl Levin of Michigan, the senior Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, where the original bill backed by Senators Warner, McCain and Graham was approved. “It’s hard to know how to vote on a bill that’s this much in motion.”
God. "Hard to know how to vote," on a bill that endorses torture, retroactively pardons those who have committed it, eliminates habeas corpus, thus allowing the President on his say so, alone, to arrest, indefinitely imprison, and torture anyone?

With Democrats like this, why do we need Rethuglicans?

By the way, the NY Times predicts easy passage for the bill this week.

I think it's about time the French re-possessed the Statue of Liberty. It certainly doesn't reflect the values this country has adopted.
