They're pushing it, though. ;)<BR/><BR/>I'd like to feel like this was insightful, but the truth is that I really was floored by this. That VF article is from a year ago. If you haven't read it yet, do so. It's like a laundry list of what's wrong with this Administration - cruelty, fecklessness, refusal to believe experts when they don't say what The Leader wants to hear, belief in pseudoscience. Even if you're just looking at it from a viewpoint devoid of feeling for your fellow human beings, it's still a sad tale.Cujo359https://www.blogger.com/profile/10385213658828021737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885549900454136918.post-42763003446870740472008-06-27T22:32:00.000-07:002008-06-27T22:32:00.000-07:00P.S. just wondering how depraved the whoever-US-a...P.S. just wondering how depraved the whoever-US-agent actually tortured a child in front of the parent to get, "information." I pondered whether it was possible for me to do that, the answer was 'no'.HopeSpringsATurtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674162196011919272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885549900454136918.post-89211111939467962782008-06-27T22:28:00.000-07:002008-06-27T22:28:00.000-07:00I know!

They and the military's justice system have been the only consistent forces for good within the government on this matter. Generally speaking, all the other agencies and departments you'd expect to be vocal about this have been MIA.<BR/><BR/><I>What the hell has happened to America?</I><BR/><BR/>I ask myself that same question quite often, and yet the sad truth is probably that this America has always been there. This ugliness always seems to be just under the surface, ready to come out when we've become too afraid or angry. Bush and his fellow politicians, not all of whom are Republicans, know how to push those buttons. I wish people were smarter, but the sad truth is that in this country they aren't.Cujo359https://www.blogger.com/profile/10385213658828021737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885549900454136918.post-2709100201094784432008-06-27T02:33:00.000-07:002008-06-27T02:33:00.000-07:00I don't know what's sadder: that I'm not surprised...I don't know what's sadder: that I'm not surprised the Bush regime engaged in that kind of depravity, or that I <I>am</I> surprised the FBI had the fortitude and decency to kick up a fuss.<BR/><BR/>Still... the shipping containers news did briefly take my breath away. Why isn't this being trumpeted on the front page of every newspaper? Why are these sick bastards still running the country (into the ground) instead of rotting in prison?<BR/><BR/>What the hell has happened to America?Dana Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00890312745525306991noreply@blogger.com
