Bush Today; "Goodbye War Crimes Act."

[edhopper]

We can't fight Terra if we have to worry about our criminal behavior.
Expect Congress to override the Act by October. And bashing the Dems who fight for it.

[The Wielding Truth]

1. It's like an alternate universe. Get these criminals out of power.

Goodbye America that we knew.

[Selatius]

2. Bush is smart to attack the War Crimes Act

With that act eliminated, that removes an obvious avenue of prosecuting him and others for war crimes.

[malaise]

That must not pass

Must not pass.

[buddhamama]

8. his motives are all too clear.

fucker. :mad:

[ronatchig]

3. one problem

is that the deed is done. Bush and hic cabal have already broke the law regardless of any attempts to make the law fit their actions.

Also I doubt the will of congress to cover his criminal ass at this point

[PresidentWar]

4. Good point. They already violate the law at will.

And show absolutely no shyness or remorse about it. Why would they bother with nixing the war crimes act?

[Solly Mack]

6. Congress will gloss over that Bush already broke the law

and will vote to give him his "commissions" and claim they did their duty

[The Wielding Truth]

7. Exactly.

[Eric J in MN]

5. Did Bush say that today? NT

NT

[rodeodance]

9. yes, interogators who are doing their professional duty should not have

to worry about being prosecuted for it.

[Solly Mack]

10. He said : "Congress needs to 'clarify' the War Crimes Act, and Article 3

of the GC" so as to better understand just what is and isn't torture, and to enact legislation that prevents charges against the CIA...He wants Congress to strip the War Crimes Act in other words and to specifically outline what "procedures" are allowed

[ronatchig]

11. I don'tknow,

listening to Bush's speeches are like to watch an embalming, something I will not waste my time on.
I do usually at least find a transcript and read his lies.

Reminds of a joke actually ; How do you know when Bush is lying?:wow:



His mouth is open :rofl:

[MadMaddie]

12. I watched it.....and it was painful...besides trying to get

over how he can't read a complete sentence withought stumbling over easy words.....sigh.....He said that his administration....never approved torture.....he said what we did was interograte not torture......
:puke:

I am on vacation in a small town in GA....didn't have much else to do....can never get that time back...:mad:
