This ain't just a few bad apples, folks... How many times do we have to say it?

from the Guardian UK:

A civil liberties group is charging that military interrogators at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, some posing as FBI agents, humiliated and abused detainees, including inserting lit cigarettes in their ears.

Releasing e-mails obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, the American Civil Liberties Union said Monday one detainee was wrapped in an Israeli flag and some were shackled hand and foot in fetal positions for 18 to 24 hours, forcing them to soil themselves.

The ACLU said e-mails suggested "inhumane interrogation methods'' approved by President Bush - a charge the White House vigorously denied.

Where is the Congressional outrage over this? Have our elected officials decided to let the ACLU lead the charge?
