Chris Geidner added,
I think about it in terms of how we talk about judges. The question isn’t whether you would resolve some question now in the same way you resolved it in the past but what that past decision says about how you might resolve a question that we can’t fathom right now in the future.
And I don’t see these “I hate torture but I’m voting yes” statements addressing that fundamental question.
It's weird how the statements in that vein that I read also omit the whole issue of tape destruction.
