Subject: RE: BS: America's shame
Bring back the good old days when partisanship came down to arguments over the definition of the word "is"... Now asys you have millions of folks who have somehow rationalized their leaders violating international law and torturing people???

Who would have thunk it???

I mean, if Charles Manson has been given free rein in 2000 to write the most nightmarish future for the United States he couldn't have topped what we have seen starting with a stolen election, teh ignoring warnings about terrorism, then 9-11, the invading one Arab country after another that wasn't responsible for 9-11 and torturing it's citizens!!!

Yeah, Charles Manson couldn't have come up with anything so terrible and inhuman...

And so the US Congress passes a bill that says that the US doesn't engage in torture and Bush says the US doesn't engage in torture??? Meanwhile, everyone knows it goes on every day after Congress passed the anit-torture bnill Bush said that it didn't apply to him???

Is this embarrassing??? Well, yeah... But that's just for starters... Beyond embarrassing it constitutes war crimes...
