I do think, that the perception on the part of the international community, that the United States is engaging in torture, does represent a clear and present danger to We the People.

And, you realize that there's no way to prove a negative. I've heard too many people use the word torture when they were talking about sleep deprivation, bright lights and that kind of thing. Even when the prisoner gains weight, torture is discussed as if it's an established fact. Absolutely nothing we can do will change perceptions, IMO.
