I agree. Vote against anyone you see as condoning torture. Should have been done last year. Everyone knows this goes all the way to the top of the ladder.

We can surmise that such only applies when one has had benefit of charges, counsel, trial and determination - in short, due process. "Humane" is just a quaint notion at the DOD these days! snark (:>

It's not what the innocent got in Abu Ghraib or Gitmo, or, for that matter, the guilty.
It's too bad that we couldn't apply the same techniques to the bushco boys and girls, but that would be wrong of course, but man oh man, how much do you think it would take to g et them to squeal all over themselves to rat out the others?
Just taking off a belt would probably do it for some of these cowards.
