Yes, this is a not-so-subtle hint to pick up the phone today and call your Representatives and Senators and let them know they need to vote against torture. And while you’re at it, why not let them know how you feel about the the National Intelligence Estimate report that was completed in April being withheld from release until after the November elections?
