MSNBC: CIA torture given legal cover

Unsurprisingly, the American Department of Justice is of the opinion that when it comes to torture, the CIA is not subject to international law.

I suspect this is because the American Department of Justice knows that when it comes to torture, the CIA is in violation of international law, and that the White House knew as much when it was approved.

Read the article.  It's short.  The logic used by the DOJ is ... how can I put this?  Stupid.  Yeah, stupid -- as in, "Do they really think we're so?"  (In case you're wondering, the answer to that is, "They sure hope so.")
