Senate says torture is not okay

I guess this is good news. I guess. Bipartisan, and all that too. 90-9 vote rebuffs Bush. McCain: "...we are different and better than our enemies." Etc. Etc.

The big bold headline on the Washington Post front page says, basically, that the US Senate admits that torture is not okay -- or, more precisely, that interrogation tactics have their limits.

In a different world, this wouldn't be news at all.
