unless someone can point me to a link with solid evidence that we are needlessly torturing innocent people, i dont see anything wrong with this. i almost feel that bush should be protected from being charged with war crimes based upon what has gone on so far. now if he starts executing people left and right, then sure. I seriously doubt bush would trainwreck the republican party by doing that, though.
yeah its dumb, but i think people need to quit shitting their pants like a 2 year old everytime they think bush is trying to mastermind some great scheme.... its just not the case |

You guys always seem to think... well bush can not do anything wrong, he is a god. This is just crazy.

Whether or not Bush and his administration are guilty of war crimes is irrelevant -- that's a matter for the courts to decide. Even if Bush were my favorite president, I'd think this legislation is a bad idea. What if this bill is upheld now and later we find out that Bush authorized the torture of innocent Iraqi civilians or something equally heinous?

This is just crazy. i dont think he is god....i just think he is another president. frankly im sick of the bitching. if he was that bad he wouldnt have been voted in a second time (or first time depending on what you think of the results of the first election). everyone bitched about clinton until his presidency was over....no in hindsight everyone thinks he was great. WAH WAH WAH...dont like it? stop bitching on a message board and go reach out to more than 20 potential voters. This post has been edited by Jessica: Oct 4 2006, 01:25 PM |

You know what, I should be able to do the same thing damnit. If i feel like robbing a store, it should be legal.
