Gutless Congress Brings All Of America Into Thier Swamp

A complete lack of courage in the U.S. Senate has allowed America to sink to a new low. Bin Laden must feel he has accomplished what he set out to do. The Bush torture bill was pasted and will be signed into law. The Republicans have their way again and the Democrats were too chickenshit to filibuster. Where the hell is the Democratic leadership? Anybody that believes this is a good bill is a dupe. On the question do you favor: (1) allowing the President to define torture, (2) strip the court of judicial review via habeas corpus (even though the constitution does not allow you to except in cases of invasion or Rebellion) (3) allowing the President to jail American citizens arbitrarily and without court review All Spineless Republicans voted YEA except 2. The Spineless Democrats voting YEA: Tom Carper (Del.) Tim Johnson (S.D.) Mary Landrieu (La.) Frank Lautenberg (N.J.) Bob Menendez (N.J) Bill Nelson (Fla.) Ben Nelson (Neb.) Pryor (Ark.) Jay Rockefeller (W. Va.) Ken Salazar (Co.) Debbie Stabenow (Mich.) Joe Lieberman (Conn.) WAKE UP CT ************************** Republicans voting NAY: Chafee (R-RI) Snowe (R-ME) Did Not Vote (attending funeral) Jeffords (I-VT) The pathetic thing here is this law will NEVER stand up in court. All these shitheads know it. They also know it will take years to work it's way through the courts. Instead of doing what's right they come with this bullshit.
