House considers weakening ethics rules

annnnnnnd

US Said to Mull Lifetime Terror-Suspect Detentions

Why? Because they haven't got enough evidence to take them to court.. so they'll keep them in jail until they die.. or George Bush and his ilk discover the meaning of "ethics".

Uh-huh, and what makes you think anyone else would make the same mistake that Bush did ? Or a worse one, given that 'merika is rather bigger than Iraq.

I think my point was that Bush and his puppeteers are friggin lunatics who think that they have the right to treat people (and other countries) anyway they like because we have more man/gun power. No other President in US history has been this obscene with his abuse of power. Yes, we have invaded countries before intered our own citizens illegally (such as during world war 2)however these abuses were held accountable by the american and even world public and rectified. Bush however refuses to be held accountable for anything and is in fact trying to pass (and has passed) laws so that he will not ever be held accountable for serious human rights invasions. What makes me think that anyone else would make the same mistake bush did? I DON'T think anyone else would have made the same mistake other than those people in his circle. He is throwing people in jail for opposing him and his decisions and opposition was the only way to bring about realization of injustices and set things to rights. He has made us no better than the facist dictator he is supposedly freeing Iraq from.

Hmm, think I should've included my < irony> tags.

I meant to imply that nobody but Bush would do something quite as monumentaily stupid or behave as arrogantly! I guess I was being laconic to the point of being cryptic.

hehehe...I wasn't sure how you meant it..as your previous post seemed to bash Bush and then this one seemed to admonish him....sometimes it is hard to read sarchasm...i apologize for my part in this miscommunication
