Ever since the Abu Ghraib photos came out, the word "torture" has been bandied about fairly lightly, with little to no analysis of what the word actually means.

Apparently the Bush administration recently commissioned a memo analyzing the legal definition. Via the Showcase, I found that Red Line Rants took the time to read the memo. He gives a fairly thorough run-down of what torture is and isn't in the legal sense. Very informative, and worth the time to read. Good ammo for your next argument.
