Jack....

How goes our love for Jack? Still hanging in?
This morning's Guardian, under the heading, "Top Bush aides pushed for Guantánamo torture" contains the following:

"In his new book, Torture Team, Philippe Sands QC, professor of law at University College London, reveals that:

· Senior Bush administration figures pushed through previously outlawed measures with the aid of inexperienced military officials at Guantánamo.
· General Richard Myers, chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff from 2001 to 2005, believes he was a victim of "intrigue" by top lawyers at the department of justice, the office of vice-president Dick Cheney, and at Donald Rumsfeld's defence department.
· The Guantánamo lawyers charged with devising interrogation techniques were inspired by the exploits of Jack Bauer in the American TV series 24.
· Myers wrongly believed interrogation techniques had been taken from the army's field manual."

No you didnt dream it.
Mind you even Jack didn't use waterboarding - I promise you you'd have to turn it off if he did.
