He links to things he finds interesting. Whether he is for or against what is represented in the link, is not always apparent. Unless he explains his views explicitly, I think people ought to take the link as something to talk about. As in a coffee klatsch where a topic is thrown out for discussion. “Please talk amoung yourselves.”

But the real thrust of the piece is why doesn’t Congress actually do something about water boarding, either make it illegal, or STFU.

For someone who has linked just as vociferously about the silliness of being concerned with torture and waterboarding

Uh, he links to many views. And he has not himself said anything like that Joshua, he has never said it was silly to be concerned with torture or waterboarding, in fact the opposite. He has also been critical of the administration’s novel legal theories, the patriot act, and many, many, other things. I have pointed out what he is complaining about, and he is right.

That being said, I don’t know that he necessarily agrees with Nance, he may link to Alan Dershowitz tomorrow, or later this evening. Many people treat his links as Rorschach tests. They mean what they want them to mean.
