This braindead collective called neocons and their braindead Christofascist followers have no inkling of the huge, huge damage they have caused to the US. It is a red blood stain that will never be removed, like Nazi Fascism.

That the US Government, in the 21st Century, openly maneuvered and supported torture is something that wil remain in peoples mind forever.

No more can the US claim any moral high ground or claim any title of "beacon of liberty." No more.

Nadler, looks good, used to look like an inflated blimp.

[justiceranger]

I, as one who has studied State Rights, the U.S. constitution and various subjects of law, can say that Dr. Paul is RIGHT ON in most---if not all---of his assessments. He is absolutely the ONLY candidate for president who will end the Police State in America and the outlawry and corruption embedded at all level of government.

[UTBESUX]

I am TIRED of all politicians and am tired of the Ron Paul spammers. Ron is ok but there are many things he is VERY wrong on. One is taking help away from the less fortunate. he thinks everyone should stand on their own. Sounds great in theory but not in reality. MANY don't have access to health and education. So what happens to those people? Ron wake up America does NOT have a LEVEL PLAYING FIELD!

[Hallonsylt]

You are tired of Ron Paul "spammers"? Well tough luck, better get used to it. Who do you got that's better, and is serious about getting getting us out of Iraq? Don't tell me that the corporate sponsored Hillary or Barack will be doing anything but Bilderberger bidding. If you don't know who Bilderberger is, you better AX somebody.

[shortna]

How someone who will stand up for Americans and for the Constitution. Democrats have failed to check the executive branch. Ron Paul will not only end the War in Iraq, he will pull all troops home. This will help secure our borders and lower the debt and fiscal responsibility. No other person could do this.

If you care about your country, watch "America: Freedom to Fascism" on google video. Your freedom may depend on it.

[ShiekYerbooty]

It's a little late Peloser, you've known for months, you are a disgrace and a Corporate Globalist shill.

[getl0st]

Bush will just outsource Torture to Balckwater...

[cry0ut]

I was thinking the same thing. These black op tools will be free from things like "laws" to get in their way. The insane thing about these techniques is that you can get ANYONE to admit to crimes they didn't commit just to stop this torture.

[ymevvjyfb]

We need softer bullets.

[weneedhelp]

lol

[neboh]

So they want it to go more like this: "TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!! Take your time though. I don't want to strain you. You look parched. Let me get you some water. HEY JOHN, GET A GLASS OF WATER IN HERE WOULD YA. By the way, how's the chair? Be honest we're trying to make things more comfortable for you guys. We know how ruff it can be." AHHHHH!!! WTF!?!?

[JackAether5]

Wow! It's NOT about being hospitable. But waterboarding is a form of drowing. It fills the lungs with waters, and can cause death. And u seem 2 stupid 2 figure out that if some1 just tortues u, until u say something, but u r innocent and do not anything, u will make something up, since they won't stop torturing u until u act as if u know something, even if u don't.

[JackAether5]

do not know anything*

[JackAether5]

the last comment is a correction to a typo where it says "2 figure out that if some1 just tortues u, until u say something, but u r innocent and [[[do not anything]]]" and it should say [[[do not know anything]]]

[JackAether5]

I meant to say drowning, not drowing.

[neboh]

Look dude. I'm not retarded, or nieve for that matter. I know know what waterboarding is. I am in the military after all. Guess what genius, it does'nt matter what congress does buisness will continue as usual. And as for the other countries, most of them hate our guts and could care less what our stance on torture is. They're going to do do whatever they want anyway.

[DreamOfTurtles]

If you support the US Army torturing prisioners you must be ready to expect the same shitting on the Geneva convention when US soldiers are grabbed, kidnapped and tortured. The same rules apply.

[neboh]

You know what, I do expect it. Read my reply to JackAether5, not to far up the page, I don't want to repeat myself alot. If I'm ever captured in the line of duty I full expect to be tortured.

[Gitmaker55]

So.... good thing GWB wrote in an exec order that omits him and others from war crime charges.

Its about time Congress, true Americans dont torture. Just as the gentleman said, we prosecuted those that did after WW2.

[neboh]

So we're hypocrites

[bobster231]

Finally congress does something worthy and a step into the right direction! I applaud them!

[Gitmaker55]

here here

[brenan6]

This is an important step, but the bush admin so ungodly corrupt, I can only pray (this is coming from an athiest mind you) that bush and his cronies choke one last final time on the proverbial pretzel.

[6pehpsi9]

Finally! Something gets done. But we all know that these sick fucks will continue to torture, after all, it's just a law, and laws don't stop the Bush Admin...

[ArmchairRevolution]

Proof democracy still works; good job 110th!

[wiskawind]

Thank you Mr. Nadler! Bush and his henchmen would turn us all into inhuman monsters!
