Yoo, Latif, and the Rise of Secret Justice

[freshwest]

2. For the 9th to 'do what is essential to shelter Yoo and Bybee' is a disgrace.

They have made a mockery of everything that people have fought for in order to continue their cronyism. They are in charge of sending cases to the USSC, which is corrupted to the core. The only power we have left is the legislature, and people don't want to be involved in the process enough to vote.

This is scary and sickening. Thanks for posting so we can see what it is. The other decision in Europe also stank. Just because they have a good command of language, defining what the UK did in different terms from torture doesn't change what it is.

Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery and torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but more merciless as it refines itself. ~George Orwell
