Bush Torture Memos
April 16, 2009 at 7:17 PM Leave a comment
This morning the Obama administration released (thank you, thank you) four memos used by the Bush administration to justify torture (in our name). They can be found here.
The wonderful Glenn Greenwald is, in my opinion, the preeminent lawyer writing about this issue. His early post on these documents is here (scroll down – he began writing his post before the memos were released). Greenwald says the memos are,
…unbelievably ugly and grotesque and conclusively demonstrate the sadistic criminality that consumed our government.
And here is a petition directed to Attorney General Eric Holder to take this very, very seriously and to appoint a Special Prosecutor to take it to the next step.
George, Dick, et al. – those bastards. They should rot in hell for not only doing this but for lying to the world about how they weren’t. Thank God light is starting to penetrate the deep darkness of the last eight years.
