>>And of course when you read the article you quickly discover that there was no torture, and this woman, this “Susan Crawford”, is just another liberal scumbag who is stabbing Bush in the back on his way out the door, just like he deserves for having Democrat scum like Crawford in his administration in the first place.<<
I don’t if Wikipedia is accurate but this is what it says about her
>>Susan J. Crawford is an American lawyer, who was appointed the convening authority for the Guantanamo military commissions, on February 7, 2007.[1] Secretary of Defense Robert Gates appointed Crawford to replace John D. Altenburg.[2] She had previously served as judge and chief judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, Inspector General of the Department of Defense (appointed by George H. W. Bush), General Counsel for the Department of the Army (appointed by Ronald Reagan) and Assistant State’s Attorney for Garrett County, Maryland.[3][4]<<
Poor President Bush. He chose the metaphor of "war" without being prepared, and without preparing the People, to fight one.
FDR had the German terrorists arrested, interrogated to confession, tried, appealed, reviewed by the Supreme Court, and electrocuted in six weeks from the time they got their feet wet at Amagansett.
If you're interested in what taking the nation to war means, study FDR's first month of executive orders from 12/8/41-1/7/42. Total peace to total war in a can, so to speak.

But to send them there with no plan - to, in essence, surrender to the cowardly view that if they were brought to US territory that lawyers and courts could be allowed supremacy over the War Power of the People of the United States, and then to have no plan to kill them once their usefulness to us was finished - that was the act of a bumbling adolescent, not a Commander-in-Chief.
This absurdity of some girl lawyer kicking him in the ass as he goes out the door follows from what went before.
