Can anyone look to see if they ever asked for an investigation into Saddam's torture and rape roms?

This is why the people in the U.S. don't give a DAMN about what Amnesty International or any other such organizations say. They are not important and their reports mean nothing. The only ones who care are people who hate this country and the Leftists!

While Schulz singled out the United States as what he called ''a leading purveyor and practitioner'' of torture, Amnesty's report surveyed 149 countries and found that for the most part, 2004 had been a bleak year for human rights everywhere.

Do you think that Mr. Schulz ever wonders why GWB doesn't have him arrested & held without trial for making these unsubtantiated claims? I mean, if Bush is truly as bad as this guy claims, how is it the Mr. Schulz is allowed to run free like a sane person?

Methinks "Amnesty International" has finally "jumped the shark".

We should picket Amnesty because they support the idea of using "torture probes"...what a barbaric thing to say.

The expression "You and what army?" springs to mind.

"Yeah, and I've got a probe for Amnesty International right here."

And I have a happy helpful suggestion where AI can stick that probe!

"Gulag"????

And when and where have did Amnesty ever have a major public news conference regarding the real gulags in North Korea and China? Never and no where.

We need a President who would have, yesterday, had such a news conference and demanded such an answer from Amnesty and exposed them in front of the press for the sham organization that they are - using "human rights" as a foil for a Marxist political agenda against the United States.
