Lush you are ignorant and pathetic. Stare Decis concerns judicial decisions it says the court should stand by precedent it has ZERO to do with the Patriot act you snivelling moron.

Kyl has always been the bootlicking lockstepper that he still is. At least he’s consistent.

Any body in the market for a slightly used and oft confused US senator from AZ. He’s bought and paid for but is clueless about the Constitution so he may need an overhaul.
We in AZ would like to trade up to a more progressive model.

Definitely worth a reminder, thanks. Now that we’ve moved from sponsoring fascists to trying to take on fascist policies ourselves, we can have an open discussion about it and hopefully put a stop to all forms of involvement in state-sponsored-terror.

This is just payback from the wingnuts on the reichwing for the Democratic Senators pointing out the crimes of Ashcroft and Gonzalez. How dare they question W appointees.

I have a great idea: Let us rid ourselves of all the fascist pigs who supported torture, the Patriot Act, Iraq War, Cheney, and the Bush Crime Family…that would include Kyl the nazi pig.

I wonder what some of these good ole boys and girls would say if they were taken off the plane to Dubai and rendered extraordinarily to some cozy little cell under charges of war crimes? Kept incommunicado and ‘creatively interrogated’ until they fessed up. I wonder how loud they would be screaming for a lawyer and their rights?

Good news is, we would probably never know. Bad news is it wouldn’t happen.

Would it?

So now they’re going to block nominees who are against torture? How very American.

It really is getting ridiculous. In the past month an increasing number of people are actually coming out in public forums and baldly stating…”yeah, I’ve been screwing up and intend to continue to screw up…so what?” or words to that effect.

Sun spots? Excess cosmic radiation? Too much fluoride in the water? Has anyone checked the status of the lemmings lately? Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea of self incrimination on national TV but it is sort of spooky as to why they think no one will notice.

And Jon Kyl is to be listened to why?? He and his party were decimated in the most recent elections.

They are like Arthur in the Upper Class Twit of the Year Contest.

“He doesn’t know when he’s beaten.
He doesn’t know when he’s winning, either.
He has no sort of sensory aparatus whatsoever.
Bad luck, Arthur.”

There are valid reasons to oppose Holder ( ultimately, I think he’s a mistake), but leave it to wingers like Kyl to remind us of reasons the Senate should uphold his nomination.

Kyl and his brown shirt friends are cowards..and Un-American in his philosophy towards the Patriot act.

Americans are cleaning house for a better nation and a better world and Kyl will be next.

Bush, Cheney and others who broke the law while bring our nation to its moral, ethical and financial knees should be prosecuted for their crimes. What I would like to see is that some of their co-conspirators such as Specter and Kyl jailed as well.

In 1994, President Bil Clinton signed into law the Torture Victims Relief Act:

Unfortunatly the reality is that the USA has used torture since WWII. I’m from South America. The dictators placed by the US during the 60’s, 70’s up to the 80’s, they all have been trained in the ‘School of the Americas’ on techniques of Torture. Thousands were tortured by CIA agents in South America during operation CONDOR.
With Bush administration it was not the ‘gloves’ that came out. It was the facade of ‘Democracy promoters’, the image, I must add, the fabricated image of USA as a source of goodness. I’m not talking about the American people, I’m talking about governments! After all, we are all Americans!
YouTube:
“The War on Democracy” John Pilger

“The Panama deception”

And any information on Nicaragua, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay…

In their photo op they say ‘Torture is an abomination’, but behind the people, they promote and finace the oposite.
France is no inocent in that History eitheir… and yet, their national anthom I don’t know how to spell it! Hino) they talk about equality, fraternity and liberty… Algeria remembers well la egalite’, fraternite’ et liberte’ francaise.
The Iraqui Hero, Muntazir Al-Zaidi expressed so well the joy of US’s (Government) democracy and freedom. He appeared with broken ribbs and terrible brusies few hours later the puppet government of Iraq ‘interrogated’ him…
