Now what do you suppose is the argument there? It appears that the White House wants exemptions for the CIA. So how can the White House keep putting it out there that "We don't torture because it's illegal" when in fact we want to reserve the right to break international law when the CIA says that a particular detainee deserves to be tortured in the name of national security? What about the previous torture in Abu Ghraib? Were those detainees privy to information regarding our national security? If not, then the US did something illegal, now didn't it? Why does Rumsfeld still have his job?
