Tortured Law

[kristin40]

What the hell is wrong with people thinking this is ok to do. Torture is inhumane witch will lead to murder..

HYPOCRISY:

We called water-boarding torture during the Japanese used these practices against American prisoners of War in WWII, yet when we conduct the same practice, it's not torture? The people of the United States and the world are not stupid.

[firstlisten62]

What about those individuals who died while these techniques were being implemented? That's murder, so where is the investigation and justification for this? If torture interrogations made it possible for finding Osama Bin Laden, then why did it take until the Obama Administration redirected our efforts from Iraq to Pakistan, did we act on this alleged torture produced information leading to the whereabouts of Osama Bin Laden?

[klard]

Bush is right. It wasn't torture. The lawyers said it was enhanced interrogation. That is obviously something different than torture, different word, different thing.

Ha Ha How do you like my Bush impersonation?

We need to find a Member of the US House of Representatives with the courage to introduce a simple bill, like the one that got rid of Alberto Gonzales, to investigate impeachment of Jay Bybee for authorization of torture, in violation of the 8th Amendment and numerous treaties and laws.

There was another attorney at the Office of Legal Counsel, Robert Delahunty, who co-authored the earlier legal memos with John Yoo which set the framework for torture. Yoo and Robert Delahunty advised the Bush Administration to ignore the advice of the State Department in declaring that the Geneva Conventions could be circumvented. Delahunty now teaches law at the University of St. Thomas School of Law in Minneapolis.

To poor sweet Rifqa With legalese Evangelical Christians use the Bible & legalese to convince Americans that so called Enhanced Interrogation techniques which constitute torture & abuse are not in fact torture -because as "relativist Christians" argue it is all a matter of perception-so much for Christian Americans & their bizarre attitude that the U.S. has a right to abuse & torture human beings as it sees fit-Praise The Lord & let's torture just for fun -Cheney got off on it ??? GORD.

The Gov. will do what they want The constitution does not concern them they are not for us or with us they are bought and paid for buy the big money makers. True justice can it be found? Its coming and when it does who can stand?

[jlfittro]

Absolutely!

The constitution is interpreted by the ones in power and it ain't we the people.

And it is coming. Here is Charleston,WV, voted a dying city, the most polluted, unhealthy place to live, losing population continuously, where we have no real crime beyond purse snatching, the SWAT team is preparing for a terrorist attack, allegedly to be carried out by a concession worker at the Civic Center-home of concerts and Jehovah Witness revivals.

[jlfittro]

The police, working to protect the business interests, are the biggest threat around here
