Your Daily Politics Video Blog: Some people seem to think torture and violations of the Geneva Conventions are a big deal. But not Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA). Apparently, it's just the sort of stuff they did at frat parties back when he was in college. Putting panties on guys' heads seems to be a particular favorite with him. We take a look in today's episode of TPMtv.

1. I'll tell you what, Mr. Rohrbacher

I think the likes of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, David Addington, Condolezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenent, Stephen Cambone, Alberto Gonzalez, John Yoo and Jay Bybee deserve a fair trial with due process. It is not because I approve of their deeds, nor is it because I presume them innocent (quite frankly, I abandoned that presumption long ago). It is because I believe in human rights, which includes the right to due process of law. We gave such rights to the Nazis after World War II, I see no reason not to give them to al Qaida terrorists today or Bush regime war criminals tomorrow.

May I urge you, Mr. Rohrbacher, to offer your services to the defense counsel for your friends in any trial they should face for their foul misdeeds. They deserve a fair trial. It is their birthright.

2. I see no point in putting panties on the heads of war crminals, but hey

maybe this guy would like to see Bush and Rumsfeld wearing them??? :rofl:

Doesn't he realize torture is no joke???
