Boy LDJ it is nice to know that you could tell so much about me from the few words I wrote.

So I won't tell you that I am a former marine and CIA officer that gave years of my life and but myself in harms way back in the 1960s-70s in service to my country.

Wouldn't want to confuse you with any facts.

"But according to the standards of torture our administration uses this woman was not tortured" You're right, by that standard she tortured those poor guards with her nudity. You are obviously confused though. First, the term "japs" is very politically incorrect. I guess you missed that page of the war protestor's handbook. Second, you lefties are supposed to LOVE the communists. Lastly, you're not supposed to care WHAT third world dictators are doing. Too many domestic programs to spend money on...

When we voted the bad guys into office in 2000 & 2004.

Anderson, the "bad guys" are the terrorists, the jihadists, and the Ba'athists. Where on earth have you been voting?

But according to the standards of torture our administration uses this woman was not tortured.

Funny, I grew up thinking it was japs, nazis, communist and third world dictators that were the bad guys doing torture and that we were the good guys that did not torture.

When and why did this change?

The only proper response to Saddam's, "go to Hell," is, "after you."

[...] Earlier today in Iraq a man accused of heinous crimes against his countrymen (including women and children) stood in front of a court in that country and told the judge to go to hell. He railed against the injustice of his trial and hurled curses at his accusers and captors. [...]

Upon viewing the photo in this post, My yhoughts:

"The Democrats wanted to give Saddam a pass and leave him in power."

That should give everyone who supports the "cut and run" liberal croud something to think about.

James:

Don't argue with Anderson. He is the worlds foremost authority on the WW11 trials. Just ask him.

Frankly, this shouldn't be considered a trial in the usual sense. The man is guilty as hell, and he (and everyone else) knows it. This is just a long version of a sentencing hearing.

No, I don't object. Not a bit.

Anderson: Not to mention that their trials weren't carried on live television. Much less incentive to play to the cameras when there aren't any.

We got off easy trying the Germans and Japanese after WW2. Very, very disciplined defendants. Few outbursts.

He has been reading the Abu Ghraib Diaries. What a moron. You're right. His trial is just that...a right PITA to those who have to go through the motions...take him out and gas him. Or shoot him.
