This thread is just another "throw enough shit and something will stick". This is my problem with you "progressives".......
Will, if you can even entertain guy's suggestion that
"America has always been OK with torture as long as it's done to others or for the benefit of anti-commie or anti-Arab regimes. That means torturing or killing brownish people is OK, especially if they're Muslims, because, you know, they make their women wear veils and don't let them drive and stuff." with a meager..

So what's your response? My Lai was a hoax? That nothing happens in Guantanamo? That the "counter-insurgency" training done at Fort Benning was all about winning hearts and minds with really fun knitting projects? That guys like Pinochet, Batista, the Shah of Iran, or Trujillo were just misunderstood? Jim Crow was a quaint subset of Southern folkways?
Even if you're a Bush person -- and it's a safe assumption you are -- you have to realise that the Bushies themselves are/were worried about what they were doing. Otherwise, there would have been no need for the legal contortions which are now being called by their proper name: horseshit.
