Oh. My. God.

The May issue of Vanity Fair contains an article that contends the Bush administration supported using extreme and perhaps torturous interrogation techniques at its highest levels.

The article, written by British law professor Phillipe Sands, maintains that an aggressive approach to questioning detainees at Guantanamo was encouraged by senior advisers to Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, among others. Some of their inspiration came from the actions of the fictional star of the series "24," Jack Bauer.


Emphasis mine.

I think I'm going to throw up.
