  • Hypocrite Extraordinaire

    In Texas Bush executed with pleasure a born- again Christian (like himself) named Karla Fay Tucker. Her problem was she confessed totally to her heinous crime instead of lying forever, like most of them. Her crime was committed while she was on coke/booze- something Bush did a lot of once, but still refuses to admit. Even the Pope and the ...

  • Amazing that Americans Have This Discussion

    Having studied American civics in grade school and high school, and having my doubts that Bush Cheney or anyone else in our current White House similarly learned about American history, traditions, institutions and law, it continually amazes me that this Bush Cheney Presidency has run riot so egregiously. Congress? Lay down. The Courts? Lay ...

  • Finally someone makes the crucial point

    When supporters of torture try to justify their position, it's always about the ticking time bomb scenario. That's because it's always easy to construct hypotheticals in which some heinous act appears to be less evil than some even more heinous alternative. But the whole point here is that this debate is about government policy and the law. ...

Their goal is to limit freedom and force conformity with their ...

  • Greymail

    Since the adminstration is setting this charade up in such a way as to tie the hands of defence counsel, I see only one option for the lawyers tasked with providing the best arguments on behalf of their clients. It will require far more guts than common sense might admit, but in the face of such draconian tactics, there appears no other ...

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

  • Why I'm an American in Exile...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...
