Gee Thomas, speaking of ignorant, that last doozy of yours pegged you cold for all to see.

You just gotta find a reality to hold onto and a lesson in manners would also be an obvious need as well.

I wonder what I did to piss you off, other than accept the fact that you think we need someone to allow or disallow our right to speak freely, not rudely per se, but freely for certain.

I already knew you to be a stooge, by the by.

No, just go back to your desk, sit down and shut up, like a good little kid with an empty head that should know to be quite when adults are talking. 

When you grow up you may have something to say, or you may not, who knows? But, until then keep quite and try not to be as foolish as you most probably are, as indicated by your posts.  If you keep quiet, no one will know how really ignorant you are, but when you keep talking, you make it apparent for everyone to see.

Hitler was inappropriately given a forum by the Weimar Republic; we need not redo the whole CONSERVATIVE RIGHT-WING EXTREMIST situation that occurred in Germany to know that it is something that should be avoided at the present time in the United States; unless we as a people are looking for the same results that occurred with Hitler in Nazi Germany.

I am so very happy to see you volunteer to be the arbiter of whom shall be allowed to speak and what the topics allowed will be. I rest easy knowing that the nations welfare is in the right hands and that things will now be so much better and more coherent as you will certainly ban or imprison those whom you feel unworthy of the right to speak out.

Hey,Thomas, should I pack my toothbrush?

Soemone should be checking into Cheney’s Hunting Buddy Scalia and his part in the Torture memos.
Yoo and Baybee are as inept as W- reading their ‘briefs’ one wonders how they possibley got through law school- let alone college.
But Scalia gave an interview long before the release of these Briefs which indicates he Knew exactly what the twisted ‘legal’ arguments would be once Torture methods were discovered.
Scalia parsed out ‘Punishment’ from Torture, in a very bizzare and innately UnAmerican way. According to Scalia’s definition and ‘Logic’ ,Torture is only used as punishment. And Punishment is only used once convicted of a crime. Since these Detainees had not been tried,nor sentenced to punsihement they were not being tortured.
What is glaringly missing from Scalias agruement is the fact torture is used to get information, not necessarily as a form of punishment. And is that not exactly what we have found they used Torture to obtain- justification for an illegal invasion into Iraq.
How many times had Cheney and Scalia been out hunting Together before torture began, before a legal loop hole was penned? How many times did Yoo and/or Baybee visit or correspond with Justice Scalia?
Come on all you so called ‘Investigative Reporters’ - do you actually think these two Bozo’s didn’t have a powrful legal ‘Ghost Writer’ behind them?
You think Cheney would not have assured he had at least one confederate in SCOTUS too? Dig Truth Dig,dig.Scalia’s in this Up to his Neck.

THE ORIGINS OF THE OVERCLASS - STEVE KANGAS
> Nixon was making things worse with his own anti-poverty and regulatory programs. Between 1960 and 1973, these efforts cut poverty in half, from 22 to 11 percent. Meanwhile, between 1965 and 1976, the richest 1 percent had gone from owning 37 percent of America’s wealth to only 22 percent. (16)

> At a 1973 Conference Board meeting of top American business leaders, executives declared: “We are fighting for our lives,” “We are fighting a delaying action,” and “If we don’t take action now, we will see our own demise. We will evolve into another social democracy.” (17)

What you refer to, and attempt to make more weighty by use of capitalization ( it doesn’t really work you know) is a matter for the courts.

Until and unless John Yoo is subpoenaed, tried, convicted and sentenced he is an innocent man and free to accept or be offered any position. Further I think that the light of day is the best way to expose the nature of this man’s lack of morality or sense of justice.

Do I think him reprehensible for his memos sanctioning torture, of course I do. Do I condemn the hiring of this man to write a column, I absolutely do not. Do I want him to be tried for his actions, I absolutely do. Do I want to suspend innocent until proven guilty, not ever, not for anyone.

John Yoo, under the influence and direction of President George W. Bush and the leadership of the CONSERVATIVE RIGHT-WING EXTREMIST REPUBLICAN government of the United States engaged in a carefully considered and thought through process of using the Office of Legal Council to REDEFINE the doctrine of understanding of the law beyond the original intent of the legislative judicial and executive branches of government, by using the power and prestige of the Office of Legal Council to subjectify the law and change the doctrine of understanding FROM its original intent to meet the needs of their sinister intentions; we can all pretend that this did not happen, and try to go on as if it did not, but this type of behavior will not change the fact that this is exactly what happened, and if nothing is done to redress this obscene and grievous miscarriage of both law and justice, it will have consequences that in time will be used again and again to the detriment and destruction of democracy and justice, under the rule of law.
