The Big Lie: Failure of Torture to Get Accurate Information - Andrew Sullivan
http://feeds.digg.com/~r/digg/news/popular/~3/-xIlpftqZqA/the_big_lie_failure_of_torture_to_get_accurate_information_andrew_sullivan
There is no evidence that torturing prisoners played any role in the successful operation to get Bin Laden. The capture of bin Laden was done according to American principles under a president who has outlawed torture. It involved countless individuals carefully piecing together shards of clues and evidence over a number of years - people who are not and never were war criminals, the decent ones, the law-abiding ones, the discreet heroes who will not take to newspaper op-ed pages to justify the unjustifiable or to claim credit for themselves for a victory they had almost nothing to do with. It is these people we should be honoring this week.

US Missing Out On Agricultural Millions Because The DEA Can't Distinguish Hemp From Pot
http://feeds.digg.com/~r/digg/news/popular/~3/i1uCL83x3j4/us_missing_out_on_agricultural_millions_because_the_dea_can_t_distinguish_hemp_from_pot
In case you missed it (and you certainly may have in the midst of other current world affairs) it's Hemp History Week. Though it's perfectly legal to important hemp products into the US, it's illegal under Federal law to grow hemp--so I won't regale you with all the reasons I think hemp prohibition (alongside marijuana prohibition) is, to be blunt, moronic....
