...being tried for a legal opinion...god, if they'd only try Clinton's lawyer...
How's your legal opinion, did your lawyer tell you to plead guilty to those drug charges and get it over with?
I think that US civilian and military leaders should be tried before a war crimes tribunal for human rights abuses committed in far away lands.
My opinion: the verdict should be a firing squad.
should not be tried as accomplices, but as co-conspirators. That would carry a heavier penalty.
suffered torture for the 8 years under Bush!
NO, no, no, no no! We don't need no libnazi biassed MSM or stinking commie dominated UN to tell us what torture is. What torture is, depends upon what the definition if 'is' is. The law got changed by our guys, so now torture occurs only when some grave permanent physical damage or death results. There was no torture, only 'enhanced interrogation'. What our guys did to get the info was like bringing a kid to a candy shoppe and giving him a lollipop. Only the anti-american MSM wants to claim otherwise.
And it don't make me wrong to say it.
...maybe THEY will all end up in Montana....that'd be punishment enough.
'...you've been convicted of conspiring to commit torture...true, no statute exists against it, or every cop in LA would be behind bars...true..the worst thing done was slightly more than a bitch slap...so we're going to send you to Deer Lodge..'.
the sentence...death by boredom....maybe the anti-capital punishment folks can get an early start....
It takes a REAL man to live in Montana, SP, so that lets you out!
...where men are men and sheep are nervous. Oregonians love Montana sheep jokes.
Honestly, I love Montana, in fact, I f--king love the west, I just have a friend who reads this site and so I get to jab him. His Dad was from Deer Lodge. Used to be a famous Whore House there, along with the state prison. It was featured in 'a river runs through it'.
Terrorists...just how scared do you actually think a real Montanian is? If it were me, I'd send em to Dead Horse, AK.
