USA Partisan: Obama and interrogation -- wrong on the ethics and wrong on the history

President Obama has said that the U.S. "lost its moral bearings" under President Bush. In so asserting, Obama is making both a claim about morality and a claim about history. He is saying that Bush's policies with respect to detainee interrogation (the subject about which Obama was speaking) were immoral and he is saying that they represent a major departure from past policy.
