Bush: 'We do not torture'

I just cannot believe how people can get away with statements like that.

End of time must be near.

[b]BUSH DEFENDS DETAINSEES POLICY[/b]

[b]'We do not torture,' president says[/b]

Monday, November 7, 2005

President Bush vigorously defended U.S. interrogation practices in the war on terror Monday and lobbied against a congressional drive to outlaw torture.

"There's an enemy that lurks and plots and plans and wants to hurt America again," Bush said. "So you bet we will aggressively pursue them but we will do so under the law."

He declared, "We do not torture."

Over White House opposition, the Senate has passed legislation banning torture. With Vice President Dick Cheney as the point man, the administration is seeking an exemption for the CIA. It was recently disclosed that the spy agency maintains a network of prisons in eastern Europe and Asia, where it holds terrorist suspects...

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our faith, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.

We shall go on to the end,we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our faith, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, our people or a large part of them were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

Bush is an idiot. I cant believe the American ppl wanted Bush to be president again. do they really want a guy with an IQ of 77 (or there abouts) to be making major decisions that will affect their lives.

Bush uses quotes from the bible coz he knows it gets him support frm the ppl, the country being majority christianity

yeah thats true he uses the fact that the majority of people in America are religious to his advantage (i personally think the votes were fixed, theres no way any sane person in their right mind would want Bush to be persident)
