So the 911 Victims Died For the LEGALIZATION OF TORTURE?

3. 9/11 The political tool of his presidency.
These people died for the political life of George W. Bush*.

7. let's not forget that this travesty was passed by the Congress . . .
anyone who voted for it -- Republican or Democrat -- should be voted out on their ass, imo . . .

12. Just found out we lost some family at Auchwitz (who knew we had
a Jewish branch? Guess it was a big secret.) Isn't the motto "Never forget"?

It is for me.

8. Remember what Coultergeist said about victims?
She said liberals hide behind victims, people they cannot debate because of their status.

All of their fear mongering moral panics do exactly that.

More projection.

10. Apparently
Ain't America great? Walk all over the dead, dishonor them completely, and then claim the moral right to torture in their name

13. See Donna Marsh O'Connor on the Misuse of Victims' Names
Edited on Tue Oct-17-06 12:21 PM by petgoat
(Holding up a picture of her deceased daughter)

"This is my daughter.... And when he took his god-damned war, he took her name, and I'm damned
taking it back!.... She's mine!.... Everyone you see, you tell them 3000 minus one, because I'm
reclaiming her name....

"You went to Iraq for 9/11. Why? Is one Arab the same as all Arabs? How dare that work in
America? Look at your hands right now. Do you see blood on them? 'Cause you're not
looking at the right picture."

See the movie about the 9/11 widows, "9/11 Press for Truth"

http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:VZSmvy-MeQAJ:www.911pressfortruth.com/+911+press+for+truth&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1

Read the widows' 300 questions to the 9/11 Commission--200 of which were not even addressed,
let alone answered.
