(Guest blogged by Logan Murphy)
Air America talk show host Rachel Maddow was on 'Paula Zahn Now' last night as part of a panel discussion on the alleged confessions of Khalid Sheik Mohammed and Walid bin Attash during their hearings at Gitmo. The segment covered torture, its effect on the credibility of such confessions and the overall battle against terrorism. As usual, Rachel nails it along with fellow panelist Roland Martin, and smacks down the lone torture-apologist, Republic Strategist Amy Holmes, point by point. Rachel gets the final word of the segment:
"You can't say it doesn't matter what we're doing cause we're trying to get Al Qaeda. It matters what we do. We're America. That's more important than Al-Qaeda."
