That information was already out in the public domain. Everyone knew it, but some of the people here wouldn't believe until they saw proof. Well, now you have proof. I think it is imperative that the citizens of this country know what the ones in power are doing. Otherwise, we don't have a free society.

Honesty exposed that not one wacko extremist did anything to save America that day. A Secret Service agent finally had to push the president onto Air Force One (in FL) because nobody from George Jr on down could make a decision. Could not even decide to get on Air Force One. Good thing we saved America by keeping that secret hidden. Good thing we keep America from learning of incompetence everywhere in that administration that day - including the VP, Transportation Secretary, Sec of Defense, National Security advisor, FAA Commissioner, ... Best way to save America – keep it dumb and uninformed. |

And still some deny we were torturing people. How does that make America any different than Nazis? From the NY Times of 21 Apr 2009:
Quote:
Curious. Those who created the 'Saddam WMD' myths also advocated torture. Why? Because they could not find those WMDs, could not find Al Qaeda hiding everywhere to kill us all ... and could not find bin Laden because they did not want to. And yet these are honest people? With so much 'honesty' from advocates of torture, how does that make us any different than Nazis? |

As much of a douche bag I think Gonzales is, I think opening the door to investigations is a bad idea.

After prolonged torture and cruel and degrading treatment, he lost focus and gave information. He named names....the Green Bay Packer offensive line. He named cities in Vietnam.....cities that were not targets of opportunity. It is not an article, but an editorial by Bush's speechwriter so consider the spin. Where is the verifiable information of stopping a "second wave attack on LA " when it has been reported just as much by other sources that no such wave was a serious threat. The FBI also walked away from the waterboarding of the two "big fish" when they thought the information was not credible. Last edited by Redux; 04-21-2009 at 01:18 PM. |
