Tough probing questions should be asked, they urged. Information on Brennan's role in CIA interrogation, detention, extraordinary rendition, and targeted killings should be gotten.
ACLU Legislative Counsel Christopher Anders called Brennan a "Forest Gump of toxic national security policies."
He's been involved in "everything from torture to the killing of an American citizen." Senators shouldn't pass judgment "in the dark."They shouldn't confirm Brennan "until all Americans know whether the decisions (he) made at CIA headquarters and in his White House office comply with our laws and uphold basic American values."

Senate Intelligence Committee members have detailed information on Bush administration CIA torture and other lawless practices. Brennan was intimately involved.
