The Good Life At Gitmo

ON the military plane back from America's most fa mous terrorist holding pen, the in-flight film was "V for Vendetta," a screed that tries to justify terrorism. It was a fitting end to a surreal, military-sponsored trip.

The Pentagon seemed to be hoping to disarm its critics by showing them how well it cares for captured terrorists. The trip was more alarming than disarming. I spent several hours with Rear Adm. Harry B. Harris Jr., who heads the joint task force that houses and interrogates the detainees. (The military isn't allowed to call them "prisoners.")

Harris, a distinguished Navy veteran who was born in Japan and educated at Annapolis and Harvard, is a serious man trying to do a politically impossible job. I spoke with him at length, and with a dozen other officers and guards, and visited three different detention blocks.

The high-minded critics who complain about torture are wrong. We are far too soft on these guys - and, as a result, aren't getting the valuable intelligence we need to save American lives.

The politically correct regulations are unbelievable. Detainees are entitled to a full eight hours sleep and can't be woken up for interrogations. They enjoy three meals and five prayers per day, without interruption. They are entitled to a minimum of two hours of outdoor recreation per day.

McConnell DID say that if they don't get their work done by Friday...they WILL have a Saturday session...hehe

Watch the dems...complain, complain, put in amendments to everything...just to keep anything, especially the fence bill, from getting done...

OBSTRUCTION must be their instruction for this week.

Here is a DUmmy arm chair psychiatrist describing one of the scenes:

"Next time you see the clip turn down the sound and watch Big Dog's [Clinton] body language. He leaned into Wallace's body space and when he tapped the papers in Wallace's lap -- well, that was a metaphoric castration. Heh."

Somebody...
Please help me understand this....

If Bill really did order BL's assassination, wasn't he in violation of the prohibition against direct assassination enected by Ford and Carter, and upheld by Reagan????

Doesn't it apply EXCEPT in a time of war??
I don't remember Billy declaring War, do you???

Interview Quote"I authorized the CIA to get groups together to try to kill him."

http://www.cnn.com/2002/LAW/11/04/us.assassination.policy/

CNN-Novenber 4,2002...
In a section of the order labeled "Restrictions on Intelligence Activities," Ford outlawed political assassination: Section 5(g), entitled "Prohibition on Assassination," states: "No employee of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, political assassination."

Since 1976, every U.S. president has upheld Ford's prohibition on assassinations. In 1978 President Carter issued an executive order with the chief purpose of reshaping the intelligence structure. In Section 2-305 of that order, Carter reaffirmed the U.S. prohibition on assassination.

In 1981, President Reagan, through Executive Order 12333, reiterated the assassination prohibition. Reagan was the last president to address the topic of political assassination. Because no subsequent executive order or piece of legislation has repealed the prohibition, it remains in effect.
