What is a "questionable act" ? I shudder to think.

At home it is the war against the middle and lower classes, the war against science and the environment, the trampling upon of the constitution and rule of law. Abroad it is the destruction of relationships with allies, the abrogation of international treaties and international law, and, with torture and human degradation, the annihilation of the good image of America in the eyes of the world.

And this from an administration that expects us all to be patriots. No thanks.

I just called my Senator, and then emailed the following, not that I expect the useless wimp to actually do anything:

America, land of the sodomizing torturers and home of the murdering cowards. Is that who we want to be? From what I see of the recent photos that is who the world has every right to see us being.

Who was in charge of that prison? Why have they not been court martialed? And when in God's name will the Senate hold hearings to get the bottom of this scandal?
