Congress looking at pictures,,,,,,,

Wasn't Congress called out to look at pictures of our torture victims at AG in Iraq under Bush Ii?

Snd didn't press report some came out with sick looks on their faces?

But they couldn't take pics of the evidence.

And (I think) talk about what they'd seen?

And zero/zip was done to change our policy? (As far as we the public knew)

So Congress seeing pics of victims doesn't always necessarily have the result we wish.

That's what will make a difference. Then the public puts increased pressure on the politicians.

EDIT: THE NYT should run a six page spread of pictures from Sandy Hook or other highly publicized shootings. But I think they should run Sandy Hook.
