It certainly appears that way. Here is the original quote, by Josh Marshall, from Talking Points Memo:
"More and more the timeline is raising the question of why, if the torture was to prevent terrorist attacks, it seemed to happen mainly during the period when we were looking for what was essentially political information to justify the invasion of Iraq. "

And this is from MoDo's column, which was printed a few days later:
"More and more the timeline is raising the question of why, if the torture was to prevent terrorist attacks, it seemed to happen mainly during the period when the Bush crowd was looking for what was essentially political information to justify the invasion of Iraq."

Her excuse for this? She said that a friend had suggested the column to her, and it was an entirely inadvertent error. So, you can draw your own conclusions.
