This is the story that’s currently scaring the daylights out of me:

I found this one in a wonderful and eclectic blog called Our Descent Into Madness:

Prison Torture Within U.S. Borders

October 8th, 2007

…

If you can handle only one enlightening but completely hearth-wrenching, peace-shattering post today- or this week, even- make it this one.

The media haven’t been telling the public about individual cases of police brutality or torture, so I have little faith they’ll relate this story either.

Maybe it can get out via the modern grapevine — the internet.

It certainly is amazing how the lack of good values in our president can percolate down.

Congress will hear of this if many firepups pass along the word/link. But, can they ignore it or is there a spine in one or two of them.

If they can’t impeach Cheney, then at least they should be forced to read this story and consider their own complicity.

Craig has had next to nothing to do with the erosion of Constitutional rights, the damage by Blackwater, and the West Wing who is taking masterful advantage of an completely apathetic public and Congress whose media alternates between the stupidity of “Britney what now?” and “Will we go to war with Iran” LOL with what troops?

The pissing away of $ 3 billion a week continues; equipment to prevent deaths by IEDs never materializes, and the dover coffins continue to fill exponentially. Craig has little to do with this, and it’s much more important than obsessing over what might have taken place in a restroom.

I’d be a lot more concerned about the Democratic Congress rolling over and playing dead with every wiretapping grab and extension of power that Cheney-Addington ask for.

Democrats Seem Ready to Extend Wiretap Powers

He told him he had nothing on him if he didn’t fess us to the juicy details we all want to hear. Jones said it was because he got beat up emotionally last time with the Haggard incident. Thats plausible I guess. He accused him of trying to sell books,which I understand, but still I think Jones has cred. He has nothing to gain. If his book tanks no amount outing Craig is going to help his book.<br /> TRex, I hope you get some acc–shon soon :]</p> guess I’m late for the party as usual, but getting back to Mike Jones mention of meeting Craig, Mike Rogers was kinda rough on him when he called the show.

I want Larry to stay in office through the upcoming election cycle. He has been a stalwart of the Republican Party for many years, representing the finest of Republican values and tradition. It’s not fair to throw him under the proverbial bus.

Please everybody, show some respect. It’s not like he approached a minor or offered/solicited money for whatever it was he allegedly had in mind. ;-)
