> Did you know that last year President Bush signed a law that  
> dishonors our obligations under the Geneva Conventions and allows  
> unreliable statements gained by torture or coercion to be used as  
> evidence against defendants. This is just one more nail in  
> America's international reputation, that has already suffered  
> terribly because of the Bush war of choice against Iraq. The  
> international good will toward America that existed after the al  
> Qaeda attacks of September 11, 2001 has been squandered by the Bush  
> Administration.

> Chris Dodd is seeking to restore America's moral authority and
