Ah, you made my point. The Japanese did not honor the geneva convention in WWII and tortured our troops. These were despicable acts.
Fast forward and W has ignored the geneva convention and tortured — not troops, not uniformed personnel — just people who we “think” are terrorists, with no proven ties to the 9/11 tragedies. We’ve tortured these people, held them without rights, representation or due process. Waterboarding and the other tortures performed on these folks can in no way compare to Catholic schooling – please don’t minimize the acts with this type of comparison.
Sorry, these acts are NOT the same as a president who didn’t keep his zipper up and lied about it. Jeepers.
