Thank yous to the ones who stood out against these **#%* officials and brickbats to the media who knew and cravenly refused to report. - normlsparky, on 01/12/2009, -1/+15FTA:
"The barbaric view of torture, and the Executive hegemony, implemented in Yoo’s memo were stated dramatically a few years later when Yoo said publicly that if the president wanted to try to force a prisoner to talk by crushing the testicles of the prisoner’s child, no treaty could stop this and, depending on why the president wanted to do it, neither could any congressional law stop the president from crushing the child’s testicles."
I would love to hear the Bush loyalists try to justify that.
These ***** should be publicly executed on the White House lawn. - inactive, on 01/12/2009, -1/+11This is the singlemost uplifting thing I have experienced in the last six months... although it is despicable... it is the first real sign that justice may be served.
Here's what mainstream didn't tell us about waterboarding:
· -Waterboarding. The water torture, now called waterboarding, has been a torture since the Spanish Inquisition. It was used by Americans on Filipinos after the Spanish American War; it was used by the Nazi Gestapo; Japanese officers committed it on Americans and were executed for their acts after World War II. It has been used on prisoners held by the Americans, sometimes at the apparently express command of George Bush. Some American's prisoners have been waterboarded many times.
Waterboarding is not simulated drowning. It is actual slow drowning. It usually produces panic and hysteria. A number of Americans underwent waterboardings themselves to see what it was like: some lasted as few as five second before they broke and none lasted more than ten or fifteen seconds. When waterboarding prisoners, American torturers would sometimes deliberately bring them to the brink of death.
Thank you Nancy Pelosi for shielding these pukes from prosecution... I think that makes you guilty? - inactive, on 01/12/2009, -0/+9I think the only hope for some real prosecutions is for the US to join the International Criminal Court in Der Hague. Ensuring OUTSIDE prosecutions in perpetuity is the only way we can ensure that our government stays honest.
As it is I have no idea how I'm going to get Dick Cheney and George Bush to Spain for a "weekend" - clvngodess, on 01/12/2009, -0/+7While I abhor violence, I agree, they should swing. --That is after we give them a Guantanamo Vacation with a few of the services they delight in serving up globally. Geezus! The bastards are sick.
- clvngodess, on 01/12/2009, -0/+5I suppose we gather up the family and friends for little ''intervention."
- inactive, on 01/12/2009, -1/+6Uh Oh.... Mr. Hopey Changey is getting wishy washy on prosecution of the thugs:

- JenniferInMO, on 01/13/2009, -0/+3Unfortunately, I don't think there will be any courts/legal tribunals with jurisdiction or authority to do anything when Bush pardons them all (and he will). Bush removed our participation from the World Court and there are no tribunals or other legal bodies I am aware of which can do anything about it.
This one burns me to no end. - inactive, on 01/12/2009, -1/+4I liked the post about the new toy Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush squeeze stress dolls... I suggested one of a Pelosi doll w/accessory noose.
