For John, BLUF: We need transparency in order to help us cure our record. Nothing to see here; just move along.
Ouch! This hurts:
Yes, Obama Is A Phony On TortureWell, the author is Blogger and Harvard PhD Andrew Sullivan.
It isn't that torture is being conducted under the Obama Administration, but that the White House has been trying to suppress a report on torture under a previous administration.♠
Hat tip to the Instapundit.

♠ On the other hand, until someone leaks it, we wouldn't know. Which is not to say it is going on. I believe if it was ongoing, it would have leaked by now.

Sometimes, suppressing a report that actually doesn't exist "makes" that report "exist." This Administration has been particularly adept at this form of smoke and mirrors. Beyond that, the more falsehoods that can be slowly uncovered, the greeter the chance that the populace will not trust the government (we are pretty much there now), and that enables the government to step in and take absolute control "for the good of the Nation."
Maybe that won't happen, but frankly, there is nothing I wouldn't put past this bunch.
