Another Torture Scandal. The New York Times today reported that the International Committee of the Red Cross gave the Bush administration a report last July revealing that it had found that the U.S. military was using psychological and physical coercion "tantamount to torture"... By James Bovard. [LewRockwell.com Blog]

The Feds' response is interesting:

White House spokesman Scott McClellan snubbed the Red Cross charges, and declared today: "We strongly disagree with any characterization that suggests the way the [Guantanamo] detainees are being treated is inconsistent with the policies that the president outlined."

So here we have the White House officially admitting that Bush ordered the torture of prisoners.
