Libs Hamstring Interrogators as Next 9/11 Attack Looms

The timing couldn't be worse.

With clear evidence that al Qaida plans for the next 9/11 attack on America are well underway, media hysteria over the Iraqi prison abuse scandal has the U.S. intelligence establishment on the ropes over its interrogation tactics.

As a result, military and CIA interrogators whose responsibility it is to with extract information from terrorist suspects have been warned to be on their best behavior. And that means they won't be doing anything that could be remotely interpreted as bringing undue pressure on the bad guys to talk.

Meanwhile, just last month the FBI issued frightening warnings indicating that plans for a spectacular attack sometime before November's election are in the works.

"Police fear five empty suitcases left at Penn Station, New York FBI headquarters and other security hot spots in early April were a test by terrorists bent on a Madrid-type attack on commuter rails," reported the New York Post just days before interrogators got the word to go easy on terrorist suspects.

"The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."

It's getting to the point wehere we have to Mirandize anyone before we shoot.

Lawyers shoudl be prosecuting Democrats, not prosecuting the War on Terror.

The timing couldn't have been worse for those morons to use interrogation techniques for their personal amusement.

I am beginning to think that we will lose this war.

Not because of our superb and brave troops.
Not because of squeamish politicians who desperately care what France and Germany think.
Not because of the Democrats who would be ecstatic to see thousands of troops killed if it would gain them a political advantage.

But because of the seditious and anti-American media, who are all too happy to carry our enemy's water and splash enemy propaganda in the guise of news across the informational landscape.

I think the choice has become this: remove all media from Iraq or conceed defeat.

Probably the worst problem to come out of all this. The libs think they can sit down and have some tea with the bad guys, and then teach them how to whistle tunes out of their assholes!

If we do lose, it will because of the media, and the lazy Americans who won't bother to read further than the headlines, or search beyond the soundbites.

The Enemy can always count on our US Senate liberals to show up like the Calvery, just in time to deny our side victory.

And it will continue to be that way until these traitors are officially added to our enemies list.
