The White House, as cited before, defends torture. Rumsfeld is an advocate, having nullified the Geneva Convention. Department of Justice, State Department, and Homeland Security all have advocates of torture as leaders.

What a country!

Now, keep in mind, that EVERY country with like-minded leadership, Germany, the Soviet Union, Iraq, all of 'em, have used

NATIONAL SECURITY

as the excuse.

As does the US.

Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo don’t bar Gonzales, Chertoff confirmations

So what makes us different?

Some would say it's because it's the US doing it, and by definition our motives are pure, honest, beautiful, and above-board.

Which is very funny.
