Et tu? Silly Steven, of course she approved of torture. Everyone did. It was the new black back in 2002.
WASHINGTON (AFP) – The CIA first sought in May 2002 to use harsh interrogation techniques including waterboarding on terror suspects, and was given key early approval by then-national security adviser Condoleezza Rice, a US Senate intelligence document said.
Ashcroft, Powell, Rummy, Cheney, Tenet, Bush — throw out a name and they were on the torture bandwagon. But right now you’re in the lead in one all important category:
Rice’s nod is believed to be the earliest known approval by a senior official in the administration of George W. Bush of the intelligence technique which current Attorney General Eric Holder has decried as “torture.”
Well, earliest documented approval, any way. Way to go, girl! Your parents must be so proud.
