"24"

You know you watch "John Adams" on HBO, even the chapter where the odious Alien & Sedetion Acts are discussed and it reaffirms that even the slaveholding hypocrites of the South in the late 18th century had nothing on our current cadre of lyin', cheatin', war mongering bastards:

While the Geneva Conventions prohibit “outrages upon personal dignity,” a letter sent by the Justice Department to Congress on March 5 makes clear that the administration has not drawn a precise line in deciding which interrogation methods would violate that standard, and is reserving the right to make case-by-case judgments.

“The fact that an act is undertaken to prevent a threatened terrorist attack, rather than for the purpose of humiliation or abuse, would be relevant to a reasonable observer in measuring the outrageousness of the act,” said Brian A. Benczkowski, a deputy assistant attorney general, in the letter, which had not previously been made public.


Again, were ruled not by the standards that founded this country, but by a bunch of mouth-breathing sociopaths that think life is like the script of "24".

And don't think you can't google up in 10 minutes the number of times various Republicans from the Chimperor to Supreme Court Justices don't somehow think that is the way it should be and is.

James Madison should bring all 5 foot 4 of himself out of the crypt and kick their asses.
