Tell Congress the president has no right of TORTURE

[Guest guest]

There is a strong bipartisan move afoot in Congress to limit the

power of the president to torture detainees in our name,

specifically to bar the U.S. Military from engaging in " cruel,

inhuman or degrading treatment " . Does it surprise anyone that

this out of control administration is threatening to VETO the

whole defense bill if can't continue to commit war crimes? If we

do not speak out they are our crimes as well. Why don't you tell

your members of Congress to stand tall and stand together?

This is especially meaningful in the context of the hearings

Friday where seasoned intelligence operatives stepped forward to

testify that GOOD intelligence comes from building relationships

over decades with foreign sources on a TRUST basis, not by pulling

off the peoples' fingernails. It is precisely the rest of the

world's confidence in our intelligence agencies that the outing by

administration officials of one of our own top secret undercover

agents has so wantonly destroyed for petty political purposes.

And they did it AGAIN by outing a key inside source (Khan) whose

information would have prevented the recent British transit

attacks. We are getting bad intelligence from administration

policies that are doing nothing but destroy our country and our

respect in the civilized world. Please tell Congress to demand

that the torture must STOP.
