This is a great post. Go read it if you want to understand just how harrowing the Office of Legal Counsel's Torture Memo (written by Judge Jay Bybee) really is. Publius does a superb job of working through the legalese and getting to the terrifying heart of what people in high office were officially recommending. That people who purport to love freedom and what America stands for would make these kinds of arguments is truly grotesque. And that they are still in high office is sickening.
