"U.S. SENATE SUPPORTS RIGHT OF TERRORISTS TO BOMB U.S. TARGETS"
It's appaling that this gets sent out to millions of people. We should really respond, while of course suggesting that Bush be impeached already.

Dear NewsMax Reader:

Please find below an urgent message from the Center for Individual Freedom, which is urging President Bush to VETO recently passed legislation that gives terrorists the same 'rights' as American citizens. Please take a few moments to read this important message.

Thank you.

Dear Friend:

Wouldn't you go absolutely ballistic if you read the following headlines?

"SENATORS VOTE 90-9 TO AID TERRORISTS"

or

"U.S. SENATE SUPPORTS RIGHT OF TERRORISTS TO BOMB U.S. TARGETS"

or

"SENATORS SAY U.S. TROOPS ARE ?BARBARIC' AND ?INHUMANE'"
 

Yet these headlines describe what the U.S. Senate did just days ago!

The GOP-controlled Senate added an amendment to the $440-billion military spending bill that would extend to spies, terrorists, and Islamic jihadists the same rights U.S. citizens enjoy under the Constitution.

In other words, our military interrogators can no longer question suspected suicide bombers and murderers of women and children without the ACLU looking over their shoulder -- ready to haul some poor enlisted man into court just because he yelled at a terrorist or hurt a terrorist's feelings.

If the Senate had done such a despicable thing during World War II, the American people would have stormed the Capitol, tarred and feathered all who voted for such treachery, and ridden them out of town on a rail.

This evil, suicidal bill - if implemented - would expose Americans to the greatest danger in the history of our nation: The planting of explosives on our subways. Suicide bombers killing American women and children. Airline hijackings. Assassinations.

Do you realize that not a single terrorist attack has occurred on American soil since 9/11 - despite the dark, dire predictions of the political know-it-alls.

You know why? Because our worldwide intelligence operation has discovered and exposed plot after plot to kill Americans, both abroad and at home.

You may be alive today because some interrogator wasn't too fastidious about how he got his information from some proud, smirking jihadist.


(SNIP)

Yours In Freedom,

Jeff Mazzella

4. Unbelievable
NewsMax is such Garbage.

For those that don't know, this is Former P.O.W. Senator John McCain's bill to stop the Pentagon's MIAs from torturing the prisoners we capture for interrogation.

I'd like to know who the 9 Senators were who voted against this, and what their reasons were.
