The current love-hate President Obama debate is focused on the issue of national security. It appears that many people are maintaining the position that by acknowledging the truth, by self-disclosing the Bush Administration's torture practices, President Obama has jeopardized our national security and our future safety.
It is a sad day, indeed, when telling the truth is discouraged and demeaned, and when the messenger is vilified, although this is nothing new. We have been crucifying and shooting our messengers since the beginning of time. Jesus Christ, Mohatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King and John Lennon come to mind. All of them truth-seekers and truth-speakers, willing to risk their lives so that others might learn a better way and become part of the solution rather than part of the problem.
