"Want to torture? Get a warrant." I disagree with Dershowitz; his logic is flawed. "It's gonna happen, so let's do it legally"...like they'd have done it legally even if they could???

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)


I think he rather misses the entire point of "cruel and unusual punishment" being unconstitutional. As such, no warrants could apply.


The modern definition of "socialist" is anyone who's winning an argument against a tea-bagger.

I hate Obama's America. You're damn right about that.


Friday, May 28, 2010 - 18:26 To President Obama:
Mr. President, you're a god damn, mother fucking liar.
Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit.
... go fuck yourself, Mr. President.

Did you miss the memo?

Alan Dershowitz was the man who suggested the policy of torture in the first place. Cheney and Co. sent a letter out to America's "top legal experts" asking how much the US could get away with in interrogation, and how to do it. ç responded "I think we can get away with torture, and I think think it's a good idea." He then told him the basics of how, but the technical details were drawn up by Bybee and Yoo.

I read Dimwitz letter at the time, I don't have a link, but I'm sure it's out there.
