Michael "What's Torture Mommy?" Mukasey Confirmed


Thanks for confirming a man who doesn't know what torture is, and who believes that the President of the United States has the right to lock anyone up he chooses on secret evidence and that Habeas Corpus doesn't apply.

Thanks go especially to Diane Feinstein and Chuck Schumer, the Democratic Senators who crossed aisles to vote him out of the Judiciary committee. Better get yourselves to confessional right now Senators, because if you believe in Hell, rest assured a room with a board and an endless bucket awaits you.

But I'm sure you won't bother, because "it's not torture", it's just "an enhanced interrogation technique."

Biden,Clinton and Obama weasling out(I expected it-especially Obama), but I am really disappointed in Dodd...just another mealy mouthed flexispine. Easedropping is worth a stand but torture isn't? Or are they all just interested in expanded wartime executive powers?
