Bush vetoes the Congressional ban on waterboarding.  This dishonorable Torquemada president is inhumane and belongs in the dock at the Hague.

I've written so often about the disgusting Torturer-in-Chief that I will simply re-post this: (Plug in the word torture on the Quicksearch button on this site for more postings on the subject.)

Bush, Torturer-in-Chief, Destroys America's Integrity

This Republican president has dragged the United States into an unconstitutional, criminal defiance of human rights and rule of law.  King George, who holds himself above the law, approves of torture, contrary to the lies that his administration does not torture, and now insists, contrary to US and international law, that waterboarding is legal.

A defiant White House imperialistically proclaimed that Bush, the torturer, can order the CIA to use waterboarding under extraordinary circumstances, implying more evidence besides recent disclosure that it had already been used, flouting US and international law.

Bush even authorized the disclosure a few days ago, by CIA chief Michael Hayden, of prior waterboarding, in essence, thumbing his nose at Congress, the Supreme Court, the Constitution, rule of law, and the American people.

His Bushite, loyalist, hypocrite flunky, Attorney General Michael Mukasey, protecting Dubya from possible war crimes prosecution, disgustingly refuses to admit that waterboarding is torture, although the United States punished as war criminals those who used waterboarding against American POWs during WWII.

And piling on his disdain for rule of law and human rights, King George is demanding that the Senate consent to his recess appointment for assistant attorney general for the Justice Department's Office of Special Counsel, Steven Bradbury, author of two memos in 2005 authorizing the CIA's use of harsh interrogation techniques, like waterboarding, against detainees.

This president and his sycophant minions are inhuman and evil and a horrible administration, the worst in US history.

And impeachment is still off the table.
