Sanchez's Memo Let Loose the Dogs of Torture
Today’s dumb headline (but interesting story) is, Documents Helped Sow Abuse, Army Report Finds. The headline writer seems to think that documents write themselves, and also buys into the spin of the Army report that an order from a two-star General to “Exploit Arab fear of dogs while maintaining security during interrogations” somehow “was not clear”.
Seems pretty clear to me.
What I want to know is whose idea it was to try to cover up the torture by sending Sanchez to do the first investigation of himself.

The dumbest thing about the headline is that it appears to address our abuse of female pigs in Iraq---not that I'd be particularly surprised.
