Oh My!!!! The Torture Executive Order
 http://www.pubrecord.org/torture/868.html?task=view
<snip>
Senior FBI agents stationed in Iraq in 2004 claimed in an e-mail that President George W. Bush signed an executive order approving the use of military dogs, sleep deprivation and other harsh tactics to intimidate Iraqi detainees.

The FBI e-mail -- dated May 22, 2004 -- followed disclosures about abuse of Iraqi detainees at Abu Ghraib prison and sought guidance on whether FBI agents in Iraq were obligated to report the U.S. military’s harsh interrogation of inmates when that treatment violated FBI standards but fit within the guidelines of a presidential executive order.

According to the e-mail, Bush’s executive order authorized interrogators to use military dogs, “stress positions,” sleep “management,” loud music and “sensory deprivation through the use of hoods, etc.” to extract information from detainees in Iraq, which was considered a violation of the Geneva Conventions. Bush has never before been directly linked to authorizing specific interrogation techniques at Guantanamo or Abu Ghraib. Bush has admitted, however, that he personally signed off on the waterboarding of three "high-value" prisoners.

2. Before this is over we are going to find out Bush signed off on raping the children of detainees
 To get their mothers to talk. We know it happened we know Bush and Cheney are capable of it.

Obama probably already knows about it.

11. I don't know, they're pretty stupid. Evil doesn't take a lot of smarts. 
 They aren't too stupid to be culpable though. What I like to call low cunning, dumb and nasty (and usually quite successful in lawless states).

15. they were counting on a thousand year republican rule, remember.
 it was stupidity, it was hubris. They felt they would perpetually be in control, so they didn't worry about it.
Remember what? The morbid fantasies you conjure to avoid genuine debate while making your own pathetic life seem signifigant by standing up to "da man"?

16. Signed off on? He probably was the one who thought of it.

These little shit stains all but plotted active treason to thwart efforts of someone who actually did have rape rooms as part of their government apparatus...and who incidently cavorted with terrorists and still had an active WMD research program and wanted to attack the US...but they couldn't bring themselves to even support an effort to depose that tyrant and install a democracy.

But let them fabricate such charges out of wholecloth and they rush in after it to prove just how tough they can be.

These asholes deserve to die. They want a revolution? They should be shot in the streets. They refuse harsh interrogation techniques? They should find themselves stuck in a burning hi-rise from a "man-made disaster" deciding whether to burn, choke or jump. They do not deserve their lives. At a minimum we should repeal the 13th amendment and beat them into slavery where they have a chance to actually be useful.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

It's really puzzling, isn't it, and yet, not so much.
 
The DUmmies finally get what they have craved for so long, complete control of the reins of government.  So do they revel as they usher in the Millenium of Bliss which Zero is sure to bring them?

No.

They sustain the cacaphony of mindless bitching which has always been the hallmark of the DUmp, perhaps even driving it up a decibel or two.

As someone on this board has said before, the DUmmies will never be happy.

I'd like to torture the DUmmies. I'd send them a notice, "Effective today, no more welfare checks, no more disability checks, no foodstamps, no government housing, no WIC vouchers, no more free healthecare, no more government freebies PERIOD...
I'm sending the Mexicans back to Mexico....GO GET A JOB.......and don't forget to vote your own best self interest next time, we need to know who and where you are."

I really wish you DUmmies would get your meme's straight.  Either Bush is a ****ing genius for engineering the 9/11 attacks and staying in office without "marshall law" for 8 years, or he's dumb as a rock.  You can't have it both ways.

Yeah, the problem is they don't have the guts for a revolution.  They would all be busy trying to be the hindmost of Pierson's Puppeteers.  They're the ones that instead of rushing into a burning building, would stand  back and criticize the efforts of those who do.  Your right, they don't deserve their life or their liberty.  H5!

It never ceases to amaze me how they can be completely outraged about something they've completely made up. I don't particularly care how they extract information from people who want to kill Americans (even the DUmmies), but I can understand having a moral objection to "torture" and even differing opinions of what it is. Though I'd love to see what their reaction would be if they discovered this kind of thing happened under Dem presidents. But how sick and twisted to you have to be to DELIBERATELY paint a mental picture of an adult raping a child? Besides, the only troops I know that do that is the UN "peacekeepers". Maybe it's okay to rape brown children if you're wearing a blue hat. Maybe it's only wrong if you imagine your own countrymen doing it.

What I find unbelievable is that these pukes don't give a damn about the Americans who died when assholes flew planes into the World Trade Center! Actually they're damn lucky guys like me aren't in charge of pulling info out of these killers!

If I had the slightest idea SOB's were going to endanger my family and friends, I shudder to think what I would do in order to extract the info I needed to keep them safe! Amazing what a ball peen hammer and toes would do in order to get a clue!
