Former GHW Bush Doc Condemns Torture

From Wash Post: "I served as a doctor in the Army Medical Corps early in my career and as presidential physician to George H.W. Bush for 4 yrs. It's precisely because of my devotion to country, respect for our military and commitment to the ethics of the medical profession that I speak out against systematic, govt-sanctioned torture and excessive abuse of prisoners during our war on terrorism. I am also deeply disturbed by the reported complicity in these abuses of military medical personnel. This extraordinary shift in policy and values is alien to my concept of modern-day America and of my government and profession." Whoa... I guess the good doctor stopped drinking the Bush Kool-Aid.
