$450 BILLION is at stake. $50 Biillion to our troops on the ground. Look for
the
president's veto.
...or flip-flop.


"Bush will veto anti-torture law after Senate revolt
By Francis Harris in Washington

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/10/07/wus207.xml

The Bush administration pledged yesterday to veto legislation banning the
torture of prisoners by US troops after an overwhelming and almost
unprecedented
revolt by loyalist congressmen...."

See link for the rest of the article.

There were so many directions to take this, and I had trouble not going in
all
of them.

The Pro-Torture Nine

I'm a C-Span nut. If, a week ago, I had to make a list of the 10 most
arrogant
(ignorant) senators in Washington, all nine of Sullivan's senators would,
also,
be on my list. Each one has a sleazy Gestapo mentality.Perfect wingnuts.
Note:
Party & States.

THE PRO-TORTURE NINE: Worth reminding people who their names are:

Allard (R-CO)
Bond (R-MO)
Coburn (R-OK)
Cochran (R-MS)
Cornyn (R-TX)
Inhofe (R-OK)
Roberts (R-KS)
Sessions (R-AL)
Stevens (R-AK)

Keep this list. And tell your children
