(6-16) Mr. DURBIN. What I have said is, if you were asked, without being told where this might have occurred, as I said here directly in the RECORD, you might conclude that it was done by one of those repressive regimes because that was the kind of heavy-handed tactic they used, the kind of inhumane treatment in which they engaged. You would be surprised to learn that according to the FBI, it was something that occurred at Guantanamo in a facility under the control of the United States of America.
WRONG!!
Anyone see the word "MIGHT" in his original quote?
(6-14) Durbin: "If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime--Pol Pot or others--that had no concern for human beings. Sadly, that is not the case. This was the action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners."
She would answer you, but she is currently on Vacation in Gitmo. LOL
Turban Durbin needs to apologize ... nothing less
Are we sure that MurryMom ISN'T Turban Durban?
And the fact that you even know this statistic (whether accurate or not) demonstrates the "open hand" policies the U.S. military are using in regards to their detainment facilities. If they were "death camps", you would have never heard of Gitmo or any of the other camps.
Seriously. You're like a gal who points out the dark clouds despite the rainbows. This war has been conducted in a way to satisfy the wailing screambabies (such as yourself) and if we ignored the river of tears from folks like you, we could conduct this war at half the cost.
Give my regards to Murray. And my sympathy for having such a lame mother.
APf
****
ROFL
Write, call, email your Senator and Congressman to demand that the Sedition Act of 1918 be reinstated and that Sen. Turbin Resign immediately.
You NEVER stop sucking.
I've always pictured her as being "Osama Mama" Patty Murray, the turd in tennis shoes.
There used to be a Air Force Station called Icy Cape that looks out onto the pack ice near the Bering straight. If that is too harsh, how about Peard Bay AFS that was a little more south of there. Send them there, the nearest points on the map are a few abandoned cabins and the most prominent road is only available when the pack ice is frozen. A definite security plus in terms of escapees.
You've hit it. This is exactly what I proposed on another thread. Lincoln suspended the writ of habeus corpus and did them one better by arresting them and holding them without charges. It took quite a while for the courts to get to the point where Lincoln decided to free them and a number of them left the country for the duration of the war. That would be a real plus now days.
Well after Durbin the line must be a mile long for the Treasonous POS Bastard Award.
All DamnRats!!
I am buying stock in pot metal right now or pot head metal or what ever you call it.
I just heard on Brit's show that Durbin released a "non-apology" apology tonight..
One of those, IF anyone was upset by what I said, then I'm sorry...type of apologies.
Isn't that SPECIAL that he did it by releasing a statement on Friday night...possible because he went to the retreat and was told what a mistake he made!!!
I have written to my two Senatrixes (Boxer and Feinstein - what can I say), and my Congresscritter, the terminally insipid and vapid Lois Capps. Needless to say, the best I can expect is one of their canned responses thanking me for my input :-(
Jeez. How'd you get so lucky?
Not one bit surprising from that damned little weasle. Typical RAT, (irritating, whiney voice) "That's NOT what I said, I really said THIS." Feh!
Well it doesn't wash.
And you are a bald-faced liar.
Durbin: Liar, Liar, Pants on fire!
Throw this bum out of the Senate. Preferably out of the country!
When you read some of the graphic descriptions of what has occurred here--I almost hesitate to put them in the Record, and yet they have to be added to this debate. Let me read to you what one FBI agent saw. And I quote from his report:109th Congress - Page S6594 - June 14, 2005
On a couple of occasions, I entered interview rooms to find a detainee chained hand and foot in a fetal position to the floor, with no chair, food or water. Most times they urinated or defecated on themselves, and had been left there for 18-24 hours or more. On one occasion, the air conditioning had been turned down so far and the temperature was so cold in the room, that the barefooted detainee was shaking with cold. . . . On another occasion, the [air conditioner] had been turned off, making the temperature in the unventilated room well over 100 degrees. The detainee was almost unconscious on the floor, with a pile of hair next to him. He had apparently been literally pulling his hair out throughout the night. On another occasion, not only was the temperature unbearably hot, but extremely loud rap music was being played in the room, and had been since the day before, with the detainee chained hand and foot in the fetal position on the tile floor.If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime--Pol Pot or others--that had no concern for human beings. Sadly, that is not the case. This was the action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator's time has expired.
Mr. DURBIN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent for 3 additional minutes.
LoL.... The mentality of a six year old trying to "fool" his mamma..
LOL...
