You know, if they really think that those who use it to go after terrorists are violating the Constitution and international law.

Beginning in 1995, the Clinton administration turned up the speed with a full-fledged program to use rendition to disrupt terrorist plotting abroad. According to former director of central intelligence George J. Tenet, about 70 renditions were carried out before Sept. 11, 2001, most of them during the Clinton years.

I'll take serious the Democrat complaints about rendition when they demand that Bill Clinton be turned over to an international court for prosecution.

Let's start pressing senior democrats on this point -- including the current front-runner for the Democrat nomination.

Heck, let's start asking how the Democrats can consider selecting a nominee known to be, by their standards, an international criminal and human rights violator.
