WASHINGTON - President Bush fought back Friday against a Republican revolt in the Senate over tough anti-terror legislation and rejected warnings that the United States had lost the high moral ground to adversaries. "It's flawed logic," he snapped. Bush urged lawmakers to quickly approve legislation authorizing military tribunals and harsh interrogations of terror suspects in order to shield U.S. personnel from being prosecuted for war crimes under the Geneva Conventions, which set international standards for the treatment of prisoners of war.
Did I read that correctly? Bush wants legislation passed so that persons working for the United States and more than likely US citizen will not be prosecuted under the Geneva Convention. What an idiot! If you had been following the Geneva Convention in the first place this would not be necessary. Second of all if any one in his administration was capable of reading something longer than a 30 second sound bit they would have know that this war was a lost cause to begin with.
I guess this is what happens when you take your marching orders from god!
