Actually, Bush's Justice Department has admitted that they re-interpreted legal methods of interrogation, and the Defense lawyers disagreed with them and the WH agreed with Justice This was NOT just some rogue young soldier. This was prompted by the WH (Cheney). It was the same re-interpretation of laws that decided that Guantanemo did not fall under the Geneva Convention since they were not fighters from a particular country we were at war with. And the same Justice Department and CIA that decided that suspects could be captured and flown to 3rd party countries whose laws did not cover certain methods of interrogation. Oh yeah, the same "reinterpretaton" of law that said that the prisoners were not entitled to a speedy trial and copies of the evidence against them.

This is what I mean about lack of transparency in government under Bush (although most of this was the work of Dick Cheney).

I'm not ignoring anything. There were a number of people who left the government (both political, career and contractor) who were disgusted and violently disagreed with what was being done. Heads rolled over Abu Grave, but I don't know it got much play nationwide.
