I know a lot of parents have a favorite child, but isn't Secretary of Defense Heller in this season's 24 taking it a bit far? This week, when his daughter had a potential lead to the identity of the terrorists, he insisted she should rest and recover from her ordeal before trying to follow up on it. Last week, when he thought his son knew something and was holding out, he authorized CTU to use torture to make the brat talk.
