cspan. George Brent Mickum - atty for gitmo detainees.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

On right now.

He tells a chilling story, one that every patriotic american should hear. For if they do, this would be the end of the Bush administration.

what a horror story. And what a brave man to represent them for free.

1. chinese muslims arrested, found innocent, sent to Gitmo

while the US lied to a federal judge about them.

They are still in custody, even though EVERYONE admits that they are innocent and committed no crime.

This is must see TV.

2. 8% of USers attacked under McCarthyism were commies.

8% of those we have detained in Gitmo had connections to Al Qaida.

8%

EIGHT FUCKING PERCENT!

EIGHT GOD DAMNED FUCKING PERCENT, and we torture all of them.

3. wingnut on now, caller from TN calling him a Democrat and he's just

part of the liberal conspiracy to destroy Amerika

[ChairmanAgnostic]

4. what a nutjob. Firmly entrenched in the 20% of the fundie reich.

I mean, he really believed all that crap.

Mickum handled that perfectly.

[soothsayer]

5. i liked the wingnut lady who called them all 'freaks' (terra-ists,

6. the most important lesson from this interview

the power of one is important. the individual kept in chains on the freezing floor in gitmo matters. the individual attorney donating his time to provide shows just what power an individual has - to stand up to tyrants, law breakers and torturers. every individual who gets pissed at what happened at gitmo and writes a letter or sends and email matters.

It all adds up. our success can only be accomplished if we all individually stand up to these thugs and hold them accountable.
