Bush admits he approved torture
Is Congress so cowed that it accepts the statements of a president who has little regard for the truth?
Is there no lawmaker who is appalled about the tarnishing of our image in world opinion? And where are the voices of the other presidential candidates who will inherit the Bush legacy of torture? Why the silence?
I count on the American people to refuse to be shamed any more.

William Blum: Oh, By the Way, the Iraqis Don’t Really Want Us
A cross section study of Iraqis. Pretty amazing stuff there.
Bush finds new excuses to condemn Iran, seems truth is not good enough for him.
Is Iran a threat? Hardly, we can’t even condemn the correct leader of the country. The president has as much control there as the President of Israel has. We are gunning for them. Beware the dogs of war.

Hard News: Saddam Provided More Food Than the U.S.
BAQUBA, Dec 27 (IPS) – The Iraqi government announcement that monthly food rations will be cut by half has left many Iraqis asking how they can survive.

Have a read, you tell me what it means.
Comments I found at Digg:
BobSutan Terrorism doesn’t kill people, acts of violence do. Guess what folks, killing people is already illegal. Why do we need even more bureaucracy to punish those who would already be punished if they committed such acts?
Smaller government my ass.
BlacklabelSAR Correction: Terrorists kill people. Terrorism is the use of terror. You cannot lock up terrorism. You cannot punish terrorism. Thus it is an endless war and so and endless excuse to ask Americans to give up their civil liberties.
Comparison: You can lock up a drunk driver, but you can’t lock up drunk driving. Same for the “War On Drugs”, brought to you by the same people that told us to “Just say no” campiagn. The same people that traded drugs for guns in order to “secure freedom” (Iran-Contra). And then claimed to “fail to recall”.
Or as I like to put it – War is the rich man’s terrorism. Terrorism is the poor man’s war.
