The ACLU website has some great documents
regarding the recent issues with Gitmo.

http://www.aclu.org/SafeandFree/SafeandFree.cfm?ID=18320&c=206

Why do we continue to shoot the messenger? We knew this abuse was taking place, just as we knew that Dan Rather was right about reporting that * was AWOL. So, my question is, why aren't more people screaming their heads off about this stuff?

1. I am screaming but only my close neighbors can hear me. When
the news media won't touch a story, everybody in the world can scream and no one will hear them. TV is king, like it or not.

2. This Needed To Be Salvaged From Page 7! It Should Be Read!
The ACLU is doing more for freedom right now than just about any other organization or individual!

This shouldn't be allowed to disappear again!

Please kick!

4. Where are our Reps? Where is our collective conscience?
Why isn't there more outrage?

We don't want to occupy our beautiful minds with this reality. America #1.

6. They must live in fear of suffering a plane (or Plame) crash.
The Fibbies and BFEE have the goods on most of Congress in the form of donkey photographs, etc. The remainder they keep in terror, as evidenced by the solid majorities in favor of the war and USA PATRIOT Act. Egads. They must truly be frightened to exhibit such behavior.
