And the list of US government officials that were involved in torture gets even longer. (Hey, it now seems like half the country was involved somehow!...)
I will not attempt to make even a partial list of players here, since I will likely exclude someone really essential to the torture policy.
But the fact is more obvious by the day: These weren't "only a few bad apples" that were involved is American torture policies.
Maybe we should make a list of Bush administration officials NOT involved in torture. Would ANYBODY be on this list!?
These officials involved in promoting torture are worse than incompetent. They are literally evil.

Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves
Blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
The scent of magnolia sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck
for the rain to gather
for the wind to suck
for the sun to rot
for the tree to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop

Composed by Abel Meeropol (aka Lewis Allan)

Same sick spirit.
Same twisted motivation
Today's players still look, think, believe and talk the same for the love of money and adolescent fraternal sense of power over those considered less than.

Jesus qualified.

Wesley Clark's answer to Bob Schieffer's question was not inartful and the General did not misspeak. In honor of honorable veterans, Mediocre John Sidney McCain is no War Hero. He is an old veteran of many back downs, meltdowns and flip flops.

Who among us does not know that some kind Vietnamese human beings saved John McCain from drowning, kept him alive and he yet lives and walks among us? Who denys that he was a POW? He was the spoiled, mediocre, privileged son of Navy Admirals. He was let into Annapolis Naval Academy and graduated 5th from last in a class of 900. He served in Vietnam, got shot out of the air and became a POW like many other GIs.

No one disputes these facts except John McCain. He lies about his rescue from the lake his plane fell into, (maybe he's confused and doesn't remember.)and he lies about his shoulder, arms and leg being broken by mean, evil, brutal, Vietnamese torturers. He sustained those injuries when his plane crashed. After coming home he ditched his wife and children and moved in with CINDY. What Moral, Republican, Family Values????? More of that stuff seem to be embodied in Barack and Michelle Obama. Why is the Obama family being trashed? Barack Obama is modeling husband and fatherhood quite well.

John McCain's plane crash and jail time did not prepare him for the commitment to marriage and family or the office of president of the USA. He is less ready for that office now than when he first got the hots for Cindy. Own your SH*t Johnny. Hero? Hero? Hero? JSMIII is no hero. There, I said it.

General Wesley Clark did not misspeak and I will not back down.

I am a U.S. Army Airborne Infantry Combat Veteran.

General Wesley Clark did not misspeak and I will not back down.

F**k a whole ship load of sorry ass lying White racist hit squads and swiftboat lynchmobs and confused fake Christians egged on by kkk biblical interpretations, Juan Williams, Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Condi Rice and other less paid, less visible and lesser known republican tools of destruction and America's bought and paid for Network and Cable ministry of infotainment.

General Wesley Clark did not misspeak and I will not back down......so here stand two of us.
