another thing that interests me in this context is that this story also appears a diversion from other, graver things:

apparently, fbi email traffic has been released to the aclu in response to a freedom of information act request that claims bush authorized the use of torture personally. here is a page showing the email traffic:

http://www.aclu.org/torturefoia/released/fbi.html

and here an article from liberation (paris) on these emails (in french--sorry)

http://www.liberation.fr/page.php?Article=263150

later that afternoon:
a new york times story on this same matter: the difference in spin is interesting.

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/21/po...rtner=homepage

caveat: the article is 2 pages long, so i didnt copy it here.

if the links connecting this to the highest levels of government are conclusive (this is not yet really clear to me, but it looks as though they are) then i would think cowboy george should face impeachment.
