Bush Admits Condoning Torture
Posted by stoptorture on April 13th, 2008
ABC News reports that Bush knew that Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, Powell, and Tenet met and authorized the use of specific torture techniques on particular prisoners. This astounding admission has gotten little attention in the media so far, which is remarkable given it is seemingly conclusive evidence of Bush’s liability for torture and war crimes, all impeachable offenses.
Highlights from ABC News:
“Well, we started to connect the dots in order to protect the American people.” Bush told ABC News White House correspondent Martha Raddatz. “And yes, I’m aware our national security team met on this issue. And I approved.”
As first reported by ABC News Wednesday, the most senior Bush administration officials repeatedly discussed and approved specific details of exactly how high-value al Qaeda suspects would be interrogated by the CIA.
The high-level discussions about these “enhanced interrogation techniques” were so detailed, these sources said, some of the interrogation sessions were almost choreographed — down to the number of times CIA agents could use a specific tactic.
These top advisers signed off on how the CIA would interrogate top al Qaeda suspects — whether they would be slapped, pushed, deprived of sleep or subjected to simulated drowning, called waterboarding, sources told ABC news.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

It was later released, after Bush was out of office, that he and his administration did condone torture. I am pretty sure there will be more information and possibly reprimands for such actions or maybe I am just hoping that this is the case. I doubt Bush will be punished, but those who were directly involved may be reprimanded; if only a slap on the hand.

Thanks for your concepts. One thing we’ve noticed is always that banks plus financial institutions know the dimensions and spending patterns of consumers and understand that many people max out and about their credit cards around the holidays. They wisely take advantage of this fact and commence flooding a person’s inbox along with snail-mail box along with hundreds of no interest APR card offers just after the holiday season closes. Knowing that if you are like 98% in the American open public, you’ll soar at the opportunity to consolidate card debt and transfer balances for 0 apr interest rates credit cards.

For a personal ad that gets results – Be positive – You might be lonely and miserable, but you have to not let that come out inside your personal ad. Also don’t come across as too full of your self. Let your excellent qualities show through.
September 14th, 2011 at 7:34 pm
Making a Great personal ad – Show who you really are – In case you have an excellent sense of humour, don’t just tell individuals that you’re funny prove it in your ad. Be realistic. Many people do not appear like film stars, most of whom do not appear so good in genuine life either. So manage your expectations on what the person you are going to meet on the internet is going to look like.
September 15th, 2011 at 12:06 pm
Tip for a Great personal ad – Develop Attraction – Do not just list everything you need in a person but go far more for highlighting your personal characteristics and personality. That way you’re far more most likely to attract your accurate match as like attracts like.
September 15th, 2011 at 4:04 pm
Making a Great personal ad – Be honest – As I stated above what exactly is the point of misleading someone, it’s going to only result in disappointment for both of you. If somebody says they’re looking for an athletic sort it is unlikely they are going to change their mind on a very first date and they are also not likely to trust anything else about you.
September 15th, 2011 at 7:27 pm
How to make a Great personal ad – Add a picture – Yes, locate an excellent picture of yourself, even probably the most gorgeous folks can at times look terrible in a photo as most celebrities know only too well. But make sure it looks like you now, not ten years ago, be proud of who you might be and of course pick one in which you are smiling.

It’s true that firms scaled back the corporate excesses, like fancy retreats and private jets, for which they were vilified as a brutal recession gripped the country. Many of those constraints remain in place, like flying commercial on business trips, or more limited private car service for employees.

Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
