The Torture Nine

[MsAnthropy]

The names of the nine Republican senators who still desire to allow the Bush Administration to torture, degrade and humiliate prisoners as they see fit are:

Wayne Allard of Colorado
Kit Bond of Missouri
Tom Coburn of Oklahoma
Thad Cochran of Mississippi
John Cornyn of Texas
James Inhofe of Oklahoma
Pat Roberts of Kansas
Jeff Sessions of Alabama
Ted Stevens of Alaska

Let's remember their names at the next election.

1. Not surprised at Cornyn- he introduced Abu "Torture Pimp" Gonzales

at his AG hearing

[MsAnthropy]

2. Both of the Oklahoma senators! But it looks like the mental illness

is pretty much nationwide.

10. Cornyn is a dirty bastard. He's one of my 2 worthless Senators

and he cheated his way there...electronic "voting" is his friend.

3. Here's a shocker - None of them are up for election in 2006

I mean, you just know that Rick Santorum wanted to support the bill but his tenure is coming to an end in about 18 months!

[MsAnthropy]

5. I didn't know that! Those sleazy bastards!

[LynneSin]

6. I looked it up

Any republican up for re-election in 2006 didn't vote for torture. Could you see the campaign commericial democrats could use against them if they were up for re-election next year

4. Onward Christian Soldiers

Where are the moderate Repubs? Just a bunch of far-right wing nuts.

Inhofe is quickly becomming my most hated Senator....that guy is one big steaming pile.

7. How 'Bout the "Nasty Nine?"

[LittleClarkie]

8. What the hell happened to Allen? I thought he was an uber-loyalist

Did they forget his koolade supply or something?

[LynneSin]

9. Allen, like Santorum, has an election in 2006

None of the class of 2006 Republicans voted for torture even though one would suspect they would if they didn't have a re-election bid coming up so soon!

11. Spread this list with torture supporters around!
