Return to Render   [Mark Steyn]

I agree with Michael re rendition, and the President's newfound enthusiasm for it. He won't abolish torture, but he's happy to outsource it, and make it one of those jobs Americans won't do. And everyone else seems content to be governed by moral poseurs: Re that Human Rights Watch flip-flop—"Under limited circumstances, there is a legitimate place" for rendition—the circumstances seem to be limited to when there's a Democrat in the White House.

On balance, I prefer an Administration with the cojones to waterboard you themselves rather than stick a bag on your head and ship you to some Third World genital-clampers.
