Torture: It's as American as Apple Pie

The most recent smoking gun came in the form of two documents that indicate George W. Bush personally approved transporting prisoners, none of whom were tried in a court and most of whom were never charged with a crime at all. The sole purpose was to torture them. These memos are scathing. The United States, under this administration, violated international and domestic human rights laws. These are just more examples of how Bush stood in front of this nation and lied over and over again. These are serious issues and should be investigated with as much vigor as the blue dress.

We are witnessing another example of a coordinated effort to control information by our media. This news is obviously of national import but continues to be ignored by corporate media. Is this a coordinated effort? Is there no managing editor who is a real journalist? One who will put this country first? A journalist with enough courage to print the discovery of these memos as a front page or lead story? A journalist brave enough not to bury important news in the middle pages of our newspapers or subjugate them to crawler status?
