Conservative Indianapolis Star Ed.-More details needed on prisoner tactics
"Our position is: Released documents fall short of fully explaining the protocol for extracting intelligence from detainees."

"In waging the war on terrorism, the Bush administration may have good reasons for the tactics used to interrogate prisoners in Afghanistan and Iraq. If so, it must fully share that reasoning."

snip.........

The White House says Bush ordered that all al-Qaida and Taliban prisoners be treated "humanely." Release all relevant documents and let Americans see for themselves.

What was that about tides turning?

Bush is losing his support even from his midwest media pawns. This is going to get real ugly before it is all over.

1. The torture photos hit home
Most Americans are for decency, and despite the attempts to spin away the humiliation as "non-torture", I know a lot of folks who looked at them and thought what they would feel if it were them. For once, the prudishness of America has helped the cause of getting rid of Chimp and Co.
