WTF!!!!! "They're living in the tropics," and eating Lemon Chicken....
:wtf: :wtf:

These people are INSANE... First we have Repugs telling us about the Gitmo inmates eating Lemon Chicken with two fruits..

Now we have Dickie saying..

They're living in the tropics," he added. "They're well fed. They've got everything they could possibly want. There isn't any other nation in the world that would treat people who were determined to kill Americans the way we're treating these people."

Insane is the only answer for these people....

"There isn't any other nation in the world that would treat people who were determined to kill Americans the way we're treating these people."

I can think of quite a few nations that would treat them like royalty for being determined to kill Americans. Of course, before you and your compatriots decided to piss all over the planet, that wasn't as prevalent a sentiment, but now days . . . .

7. "... determined to kill Americans ..."
No one's been convicted of anything, but this buttwipe knows all about what they're determined to do.

If they weren't before, they are now!

3. so what's our beef with Castro or Chavez?
How can we claim that their people are "oppressed?" After all, they're living in the tropics?

Everything they could possibly want? Yeah, if what they want is to be beaten and tortured.

What a maroon.

Except;

-Being charged with anything and a fair TRIAL.

-Except their FAMILIES and LOVED ONES.

-Except their FREEDOM and LIBERATION if they're innocent, like HUNDREDS have been but held for THREE YEARS until being released.

-And at least 26 of them, except their LIVES.

12. i just took the liberty of copying and pasting your poster and sending a
Edited on Fri Jun-24-05 05:39 AM by flordehinojos
copy of it, via e-mail, to wolf@cnn.com with the subject line of,
"blitzer's interview of mr. cheney" -- let's hope blitzer gets to see the e-mail!

sent with compliments of myself and my ancestor andrew pickens.

---------------------------------------------------------------------



Major Pickens was in charge of the South Carolina militia at the Battle of Cowpens in January 1781. There with Continental troops under General Daniel Morgan, the Continentals won a great victory over the British. Following the battle at Cowpens, Pickens worked with the Continental Army under Nathaniel Greene in North Carolina.

Pickens, an elder in the Presbyterian Church, was described as a severe, dour, Scots Irishman of few words.

Pickens rose in rank from captain of militia to brigadier
general. ... See AN Waring, The Fighting Elder: Andrew Pickens (1962). ...

18. no..i don't watch him ...however, when i was channel surfing yesterday, i
saw blitzer on the screen and then cheney, and then read something like "exlusive" on the screen or something like that...

i have stopped watching the news after the 20004 retake of the white house by the bush goons.

i have stopped even e-mailing the meanstream media, who used to get an almost daily doze of e-mails from me, unless, i see something powerful that i can hit them with --- and then i e-mail them, like i did this morning by copying the guantanamo poster and sending it directly to them.

Or, if i hear of something that really moves me to some sort of revolt (or revolution of thoughts, ideas, or facts, then i e-mail them my thoughts, and usually i do it by invoking the name of my ancestor, on whose blood this country was built... so that they won't be calling me whatever it is that they want to call people who stand for truth and opposition to the bush goons these days--and i do it to the blitzers, novakulas, david gregories, bill plantes, leslie stahls, (judy woof-woof up until the time she quite CNN) etc. etc. etc. chris matthewses, etc. etc. etc. who all ignore whatever it is they want to ignore...

and i even do it to the local media--who used to reply to most of the e-mails...but who these days prefer not to reply, unless something hits them really powerfully, then they do reply, so, at least with them, i know they are reading the mail, even if they don't reply. although, i am not all that sure about the national meanstream media.

11. They have 'everything' but DUE PROCESS
...What about giving them a lawyer and a trial?

How many of the people at Gitmo are actually guilty of a crime?

The fact of the matter is they don't want to give them a fair trial. They don't want the American people to know that they have imprisoned and tortured people to get information...not because they have committed a crime.
