Democrats Grill Mukasey

Manu Raju, of The Hill, reports: "Attorney General Mukasey told Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) that the method by which to measure when a tough interrogation technique is needed should fall under a 'shocks-the-conscience' standard. That standard essentially is a 'balancing test' between the 'heinousness of doing it, the cruelty of doing it' versus the value of the information the detainee might divulge. 'You're the first person I've ever heard say what you just said,' Biden said. 'Matter of fact, it shocks my conscience.'"
