Their sworn duty to protect and defend the Constitution demans that they oppose this bill with everything they've got.
No alternatives.
No "putting on hold."
The
ONLY purpose of Bush's
War Criminals Protection Act is to protect the War Criminals in the Executive Branch from the punishment that their actions demand in any civilized society.
Any claim to any other purpose doesn't pass the smell test.
Every provision mades sense when viewed through the lens of their contemptable goal.
It is that contemptable goal they must foxus on and hammer home.
As they try to make it impossible to bring the WH terrorists to justice, they are also making it nearly impossible to bring others who who commit acts of terror to justice.
War Crimes Protection Act -- "opposition" IGNORES most destructive partThe bill itself is evidence of consciousness of guilt and malice aforethought. As they look for cover in their fascist fantasies, their words and actions make it crystal clear that they do not expect those fantasies to hold. In his memo, Alberto Mora (outgoing general counsel of the United States Navy) provides an excellent factual summary of the timeline and players in the Bush regime's War Crimes. Over and over their actions demonstrate a conspiracy to knowingly commit, and escape consequences of, their crimes. (
