LADY J........ That reads like something written by the Dems in the US Senate. “Secret US military prisons” and “torture” are the key words that reveal the propaganda from the Left. ....Even the known terriorists/enemy combatants in GITMO haven’t been tortured. Instead, they eat gourmet meals, have TV, have recreation periods and live lives of leisure as prisoners.
