Outrageous!!!! This is the real reason for this law.....

[Postman]

At the same time, the bill immunizes U.S. officials from prosecution for cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment of detainees who the military and the CIA captured before the end of last year...

Remember the Abu Ghraib tapes we never seen that Seymour Hersch described? The ones where Iraqi boys were being sodomized, screams, shrills and the like, all caught on tape?

They have covered their criminal ass with this law. Absolutely disgusting. This administration is THE MOST CRIMINAL administration in the nation's history, bar none.

1. I keep wondering....

Why the Dems didn't fight hard enough?? Could it be that when they control congress and have hearings AND finally show the war crimes that Bush & Co. committed AND this law which covers their ass, then the outrage is even greater and the call for impeachment is even stronger?? hmmm....

2. sounds good but we've been saying this for 6 years

when Kerry didn't want a recount we said oh, he has another plan. We keep hoping but nothing changes.

5. the reality is. 6 years later we are still trying to prove 2000 was

stolen. to have expected kerry to stand up and say stolen, and 2 years later we still donthave proof is absurd

4. constitution says you cant pass a law Ex Post Facto, it only applies to

ones charged in military trials.. they hope we forget the rest, as we type right now, Newt Gingrich is declaring the Supreme Court is invalid and cant legislate from the bench, the president has the last word... this is the same guy who committed 5 to 7 felonies stealing the poor black kids college charity funds he set up.. to make Reich Wing propaganda films of his lectures at a racist collage for profit... he got caught and only had to resign and stay out of politics for a said amount of years........ well, he's bacKKK..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
