Spit. I hate this woman Senator. He needs to be fired.

With 5 bullets to the head, WE TORTURED ABU AFTER HE GAVE THE INFORMATION. Just having 5 bullets to the head is torture for crying out loud, but yet, it made sense to torture the guy anyway? INFURIATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I find it very funny that Graham brings up the issue of recidivism of detainees when our treatment of them was probably the main reason why they hate us and took to the fight. If they were innocent going into GITMO, they sure as hell won’t be too happy when they are released.

The Bush administration’s policies created many more terrorists than we killed or converted.

Cheney has not shied away from throwing her weight around. During her frequent trips to the Middle East, she often operates independently of the department and of the U.S. ambassador in whatever country she is visiting. She has been known to insist on seeing a head of state without inviting the American ambassador to accompany her, in violation of protocol, often threatening the ambassador with the power of her contacts. On at least one occasion, however, an ambassador called her bluff. “Liz Cheney comes out to this country, and she tells the ambassador — and she doesn’t outrank him — she tells the ambassador, ‘You’re not going in the meeting with me,’” recalls Larry Wilkerson, who served as Colin Powell’s assistant during his tenure as secretary of state. “And he says, ‘I’m sorry, I’m going in the meeting with you. You’re not going into a meeting with the head of state without me.’ And she says, ‘Nope — would you like a telephone call?’” In this case, says Wilkerson, the department’s bosses backed up their ambassador, who accompanied a chastened Cheney into the meeting. But that has not always been the case. “It’s not just that she is imperious in dealing with our ambassadors,” notes a corporate lobbyist who is deeply involved in Middle East policy. “She’s got her own foreign policy, her own agenda, and so of course she wouldn’t want the ambassador to know what she is talking about when she meets a head of state.”

I probably won’t live to see it, but you pups are going to have to deal with Liz Chaney running for president some day. Be prepared.
