5. It is reprehensible to compare Gitmo with Gulags, too bad it's true
THAT is the problem Scotty, not that it is reprehensible to compare them, but the fact that they are as similar as they are. Oh, millions were killed by the PolPot and Soviet regimes, so they are bad. Um, scotty, have you looked at Iraq war #s? On to gas prices.

21. It IS a reprehensible comparison
The Nazis and the Soviets knew how bad it was and how it would look to the outside world, and they did their best to cover it up and keep it secret. The Bush administration, however, is proud that it's locked up hundreds of persons without charge or recourse, and they are publicly making the case that they can continue to hold all of them indefinitely, even forever if they want to.

Hitler and Stalin at least offered bad excuses that no one believed. The Bushistas just say it out loud and proud: We are above all legal and humanitarian standards.

22. And Durbin pose it exactly right too...
He said (I am paraphrasing) "... if someone did not know the context of who/what/where when reading these reports they would think it was the Nazis or ... but it isn't so".

14. I knew it! They always hold a press conference for Bush around
Edited on Thu Jun-16-05 12:24 PM by applegrove
soon to be breaking news so Bush isn't the lead story. They do it every single month like that.

Just for once - I'd like to see Mr. Big Balls I Can Threaten the World hold a press conference on a slow news period of time.

Scroll down to see Recent Programs - it is 3rd in list - I don't want to open it now as I am watching the DSM hearings on CSPAN now and don't want to lose that. If you can't locate it, PM me and I'll get link for you later
