Prememptory Pardons?? Jaysus Anonymoose . . .
You presume guilt, then?
"President Bush should make it clear that he will pardon any CIA/military/contractor who was acting in good faith in the Global War on Terror, against any overzealous Monday-morning quarterbacking prosecutions. All patriotic candidates in the 2008 presidential sweepstakes should follow suit. And there will be overwhelming public pressure for this. Anyone who thinks the American public is in favor of coddling the perpetrators of 9/11 is living in the twilight zone."
Cue in the music here. You've always been a loonie nabalzbbfr or anonymoose or whatever handle you appear under (what handle do you use when you frequent Freekersrepublic or Townhall or Little Green Snotballs???), but this one -- whew -- kinda makes me worry. Spread Jaysus on melba toast, where do people like you live? Work? Surely your neighbors must suspect something strange going on in the house next door . . .
The torture tapes disappeared for the same reason Bush dropped out of the International Courts. These monsters, war criminals and their 'patriotic' CIA/militaty/contractors would / should be in the dock in the Hague. The good news -- unlike the trials after WWII -- they don't hang these monsters anymore. They keep them around -- capital punishment being practiced only in non-civilized nations. The bad news -- America will never surrender these beasts.
Anonymoose nee nabalzbbfr continues in his delusion:
"And in other news all the received wisdom on the Iran NIE is turning out to be dross. The American people, by an overwhelming margin in a recent poll, consider Iran to be mortal threat to both Israel and the US. And Defense Secretary Gates has just reiterated that the military option remains very much on the table."
Sigh. Do us all a favor -- don't breed.
