  1. It means dropping the anti-abortion and anti gay shtick. And stop trying to force creationism into the classroom. (this is not directed at you, it's directed at the crazy christian conservatives)
  2. Since when is waterboarding a lawful sanction? In either case that was not the only thing they did. The bug in the box, sleep deprivation, walling, stress positions, freezing them to hypothermia. I forget the whole list it's not just waterboarding though. Well.. you want to go to court and present our cases to a judge and get a decision? Because when it comes down to it, that's all I'm asking for. A fair investigation and fair trial for the Bush folks.
  3. WTF? So are telling yourself we have no law saying we have to abide by treaties? Dude get out of here. Now you are just telling lies. Are you talking about their prisoner status? We've covered that here. That is also covered under Geneva convention. Anyone who's status is unknown defaults to a enemy combatant status until a status is decided. Also I listed TWO treaties. You can't just pick one out, tell a lie about it and pat yourself on the back as job well done.
  4. UN Convention Against Torture. Signed by the President, and ratified by the senate. Here's a sample.. Also, the Geneva Conventions Treaties that we've co-authored, signed and ratified.
  5. What the hell ever happened to separation of church and state? "The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion"
  6. Ack, here is a sad story caused by idiots with guns. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/tx/6416320.html
  7. am i crazy.. I only see questions and not answers.
  8. Basically what I see you saying is that the president can break the law if he wants to. Are we not a country governed by the Rule of Law or what? And yes if Obama breaks the law and tortures people I will denounce it also.
  9. Ah the old bully pulpit.
  10. I guess it really was a photo op though. Also the guy resigned. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/05...rector-resigns/
  11. Heh, well you know... lot more than that. The list is so long that it might bring down SDS's servers if I posted it. Don't want to do that.
  12. I don't know why you can't get this through your thick skull, as it's been said a million times. NOBODY is going to defend Nancy Pelosi. No one. What part of nobody do you not understand? Every intelligent person I know wants her out of office. Attack her all you want, but just get it through your empty skull that I am on your side with every attack you throw against her. I want her gone from public office as much as I want republican dirtbags like Richard Shelby and John Boehner gone. They are all just foul corruption that poisons our society.
  13. Are you saying my statement is false?
  14. So is that what you want to see happen then? A terrorist attack so that you can pretend you were right? Even if you don't, I really get the feeling a lot of righty's really do feel that way. It's kind of sad.
  15. Probability that waterboarding is illegal in the U.S. - 100% Probability that beheading by Islamic Militants is illegal in the U.S. - 100%
  16. Whatever the law determines. We are governed by laws, not the President.
  17. Either way, the law was broken. Or maybe if like McVeigh only killed 3 people, we would have let him off the hook? It was only three people.
  18. Who in their right mind even likes 2 parties? Way to few parties in this country.
  19. ? He's a socialist terrorist muslim who wants to destroy the country?
  20. I think that's its own thread. But yeah it is a bit strange and suspicious.I don't quite get it.
  21. Do you know the concept of introducing legislation? .. well obviously you don't... silly question on my part.
  22. Stop making Obama out to be something he's not. Goodness no wonder you people hate the guy. You do not have anything close to an accurate perception of what or who he is. I'd hate him too if I was as uninformed as you.
  23. Precedent Tom? Yes? No? ... or is it more calling names and not admitting you are wrong?
  24. According to the GOP Micheal Steele is not part of the GOP. So I think your story is a bit misleading
  25. Bush collected BJ's from his aides?
