>>I think you're giving the administration a pretty easy pass on torture. Torture is torture when any country does it and I don't think there is much disagreement about that. It's just particularly disappointing when we do it while at the same time holding ourselves up as a virtuous world compass. Some pillar of freedom we are.

>I guess it's a good thing I'm not running the show then, from your pov. I'd take NO or at least very few prisoners. I would probably get answers from the "prisoners" on the fist day, by showing them the same courtesy they have shown us. I'd take all the prisoners up in an airplane, fly over bagdad, and drop them off, from about 35,000 feet.
