Allies Welcome Rice's Comments on Torture
"It is my impression that Secretary Rice ... cleared the air. You will not see this discussion continuing" at the NATO headquarters, NATO Secretary General Jaap De Hoop Scheffer told a news conference.
Translation? I just got a call from my bank that the check cleared.
Also from the article:
Rice said cruel and degrading interrogation methods are off-limits for all U.S. personnel at home and abroad. But she gave no examples of banned practices, did not define the meaning of cruelty or degradation, and did not say if the rules would apply to private contractors or foreign interrogators.
So the U.S. doesn't torture....but Haliburton and CACI do!
Even in the midst of 23rd hour final manuscript revisions, I'm still news obsessed.
