Today’s New York Times has an article explaining how torture became a method of interrogation for this administration: When the Justice Department publicly declared torture “abhorrent†in a legal opinion in December 2004, the Bush administration appeared to have abandoned its assertion of nearly unlimited presidential authority to order brutal interrogations.

Condi is out doing the tough talk on North Korea, but is she making promises she can’t keep?
