BTTT!
That and post #11.....
He won’t.
True. The British have to know that they are responsible for most of this mess. They are the ones that created little Kingdoms (where none existed) all over the middle-east.
Ramos and Campion. Amen!
They should be pardoned and I would rather see my tax dollars go to a pension for them then bail out these other bast*rds.
I hope he doesn’t pardon them. Those men did what the American people wanted done, which was find out quickly what pending threats were still in existence and who was involved. If a poll had been taken in November of 2001 about torture the overwhelming majority of Americans would have said “do it, and make it painful.” Besides, the house and senate committees on intelligence knew all about what was going on and half of them were Democrats. This needs to come out even if it takes a court of law to do it. Furthermore, before they can be prosecuted the court would need to define what constitutes torture.
Good they have kept MOOHAMAAD from killing another three thousand americans... Pardon away GW
You beat us to it.
“George W Bush could pardon spies involved in torture”
Whatever you do Mr. Bush, don’t pardon border patrol agents who tried to protect your country!
A lot of people hoped W would go after Clinton in the legal sense. Wonder if O goes after W.
Tim Shipman! LOL!
Gads, I hope so.
If spies engaged in torture in California, how would a pardon protect them?
Presidential pardons do not shield people from prosecution by the state.
