Torture: Moral Outrage

From Eugene Robinson at the Washington Post:

This week, George W. Bush reminded us how grievously he has wounded our nation's ideals, values and standing in the world -- and how big a challenge the next president will face in repairing the damage.

On Tuesday, authorized by the White House, CIA Director Michael Hayden gave Congress the fullest account so far of the CIA's use of waterboarding, which the administration calls an "interrogation technique" but which international agreements -- and plain English -- call torture.

Not to mention illegal even if the AG won't say it is. BTW, Mukasey is a disgrace, too.

Best go for a walk. Sun is shining, temperature rising.
