A quick note to Democrats that voted for the Military Commissions Act – The reason you don’t like this guy should be PERFECTLY CLEAR, but it isn’t, because you’re morally corrupt.

I hope that wasn’t too subtle.

From Mother Jones –

How did we transform from champions of human dignity and individual rights into a nation of armchair torturers? One word: fear.

Fear is blinding, hateful, and vengeful. It makes the end justify the means. And why not? If torture can stop the next terrorist attack, the next suicide bomber, then what’s wrong with a little waterboarding or electric shock?

The simple answer is the rule of law….

Those who support torture may believe that we can abuse captives in certain select circumstances and still be true to our values. But that is a false compromise. We either believe in the dignity of the individual, the rule of law, and the prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment, or we don’t. There is no middle ground.

THIS IS WHAT WE, AS DEMOCRATS, SHOULD BE DEMANDING! Not the cowardly, craven and despicable tantrums of power-mad DINOs who think that torture, extraordinary rendition and suspension of Habeas Corpus is fine to vote for if it will help you get reelected.
