condi just spoke live on cnni prior to her departure for europe to tell 'em to back off their outrage about u.s. torture, rendition, and secret prisons...
"Renditions save lives. [...] The United States has respected and will continue to respect the sovereignty of other countries. [...] The United States does not and will not use the airports of any countries to transport prisoners to other countries for the purpose of interrogation using torture methods. [...] The United States government does not authorize or condone the use of torture."
blah, blah, blah... it's one more instance of "who are you going to believe...? me or your lying eyes...?"
