Hello experts:
And, while we’re at it.....
What does it say about this president, when he threatened to use his veto, for the FIRST time in his presidency, to defeat a law that says we would prohibit the “cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment” of prisoners in the custody of the US military?
The Republican controlled senate passed the measure 90-9.
Some of you will argue, as you have in the past, that our actions are not as horrifying as al_Qaida’s, so we should not be concerned. Since when did al Qaida become the standard by which we measure the morality of our country?
