As the dust begins to settle on the latest round of George Bush vs. American Values, it's important to emphasize just how little support this man has for the torturous way he operates. While Senate Republicans now say that that they have reached some sort of Geneva Conventions-friendly "agreement" with the White House, the vehement backlash against Bush by the military this past week is well worth revisiting.
Five former Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff actually had to publicly stand up against a sitting President of the United States! Yeah, it's really gotten that bad.
These men were joined by dozens of other Generals, Admirals, intelligence officers and the entire JAG Corp, plus, the FBI (who refuse to be present while interrogations are taking place because they are too gruesome).
What about those "rendition" sites in foreign countries?
