Freaky Friday (Not in my back yard, you don't.)
Okay- Now that I have gotten past Candy Crowley's make-up- Here are my questions:
1. Is it just that the American people and some of our political representatives in Washington are basically morons and willing tools of the media?
Or
2. Is it that the media, in their quest for high ratings and a natural gravitation toward sensationalism, are willing tools of the extreme Right?
Why is there any kind of debate over what to do with the Terrorists? No-brainer. We have great maximum security prisons right here in America and when we have released these guys to other countries, about 1 in 7 of them come back to threaten us again. What is the problem here? Ask yourself why we are even having this debate.
(For the answer to that question, see questions 1 and 2.)
Oh, and one more thing:
President Obama should stop letting the WingNut brigade rope him and Pelosi into the “torture debate.” Let the Judicial arm of government deal with that- We have too many more pressing issues to deal with. Bring out former VP Al Gore and let him and former VP Cheney debate this subject on C-Span.
