Just as scary are some in The Cellar who approve of laws and secret overseas torture chambers that violate American principles. We even discovered how the Ford Foundation has no credibility - and that George Jr is an honest man. Scary was political propaganda that even justified the 'Pearl Harboring' of Iraq. I make no excuses for seeing through those lies even five years ago, here, in the Cellar. I make no apologies for bluntly and openly challenging others here who still approve of torture and promote lies about 'unlawful enemy combatants'.
Why do we need secret prisons? Some in America are little different from Nazi Germans, ethnic cleansers, or the KKK. Justifications for those prisons are that scary. Also scary are how some politicians such as PA’s Rick Santorum approve and then get relected. Some even in the Cellar approved of wiretapping without judicial review - as if enemies where hiding all among us as Joseph McCarthy proclaimed.
I said years ago in the Cellar, "Nobody expected the Spanish Inquisition". Still this president hypes lies about a war on terrorism - and so many blindly believe. A "Spanish Inquisition" is why America needs secret prisions, laws to make torture legal, and laws so that the Supreme Court cannot protect basic human rights. All this even done in the name of god - as in post 15th Century Spain.
