Robert Novak reports on some outrageous comments by Senator Tom Harkin:

Harkin, appearing on liberal Randi Rhodes's national radio talk show, became animated as he said of Owen: "This is not a person to put on the bench for a lifetime appointment. This person is wacko! She's wacko!"

On the same program, Harkin said Christian broadcasters are "sort of our home-grown Taliban." He added: "They have a direct line to God. And if you don't tune into their line, you're obviously on Satan's line."

LMAO!!!

The truth hurts eh?

LMAO!!!

No, most people know that the DemocRats have lost their way on the journey to cater to the extreme left.

According to Dins we're already stooping to the same level as terrorists and these barbaric states like Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc.

Since we have used Syria and Saudi Arabia to tourture people, I'd agree with that.

We use them to torture people??

Link??

BTW - I don't see the US bombing embassies, cafes, skyscrapers, etc. Do you?

Your anti-American ass will get beat down if I ever see you.

Hey, B, what do you have to say about the "rendition" policy being established by Clinton??

You knew that, right?

SO FUCKING WHAT????

Is that supposed to make it right?

That was quick...melt, much, 'tard.

Yeah, it matters because you people would have us believe that the Bush policy is to torture people. When proven wrong, you then tell us that Bush policy is to outsource torture.

Wrong.

The policy has been in place now for several years. Apparently, it was acceptable and right under Clinton.

:roll:

You weren't arguing whether it was right or wrong. You were trying to run your game the Bush is a torture adovcate and has changed US policy to reflect that.

That is right. Unless Bush has renounced that policy he endorses torture..

No it wasn't. Clinton also flew back to Arkansas to make sure he signed off on executing a retarded kid. Not everything Bubba did was OK in my book.

Look back REAL careful. I never said Bush changed policy. It is fair to say that he condones it.

Care to explain?? You've alleged that it is the equivalent of torture, yet, you've failed to even present the "rendition" policy, let alone illustrate the equivalency...

No it wasn't. Clinton also flew back to Arkansas to make sure he signed off on executing a retarded kid. Not everything Bubba did was OK in my book.

You're not the only one making this absurd argument.

Condones "what?"

Post the policy...

So what? How do you propose to interrogate recalcitrant terrorists without it?

This is where I give you some props. At least you're honest about your position.

So, what's the policy?

I guess instead of torture they could just lob off the terrorist's domes.........

Terrorists are not eligible for the protections and privelages of the Geneva Convention.
