Bush's Plans to Legalize Torture

You know why the big push, all the sudden, by the criminal Bush
administration to make torture legal (retro-actively, mind you)? It's
because they know that Americans are about to say 'No,' to their failed
policies. This November, Americans are going to reject the failed
policies of fear, Americans are going to reject Bush's failed foreign
policy, Americans are going to reject this administration's ideas that
it's okay to treat people in our custody in a cruel and inhuman way.
The Bush administration knows that Americans are going to return to
sanity and elect Democrats back to the majority in both the House and
the Senate, and that when that happens, Congress will have, and use,
it's subpoena power to investigate the lies that were told in order to
drag us into a war of choice against a country that did nothing to harm
us. But even morefrightening to the neo-cons, is the fact that Congress will investigate their reliance on secret prisons and torture, and that Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeldand (Atty Gen.) Gonzales will probably be eligible to be brought up on
war crimes charges by international courts. That's why the big push, all the sudden, to retro-actively make torture legal.

Now consider that the republicans have to know that the Democrats stand a very good chance of regaining the upper hand in both the House and the Senate in the up-coming elections. If this happens, the Democrats will have subpoena powers to compel the release of documents that will undoubtedly show the world exactly what kind of thuggery the republicans have been engaged in. The republicans have to know that impeachment procedures will be initiated in the Senate against President Bush for his crimes against, and lies to the American people. These things being true, I am very concerned about what the republicans will be willing to do (and what they are per...
