“The home of the free and the torturers?”

Right now the most dangerous man on earth for the Republican Party is Eric Holder.

But if the Republican’s get their way and Holder is restrained from Defending the Constitution against all enemies domestic and foreign; the United States itself could fail. “The home of the free and the torturers?” I don't think so.

It kind of all comes down to the old saying “If you don’t want to do the time, don’t do the crime. Bush and Cheney are and were very well aware that torturing prisoners of war is an internationally recognized crime against humanity. When Bush and Cheney casually admitted to ordering torture they screamed out that we are just too important, powerful and wealthy to bring to trial.

“Republicans plan to stall the nomination of attorney general nominee Eric Holder until they get an iron-clad guarantee that the Justice Department will not pursue criminal prosecution of members of the Bush Administration for its role in torture and other abuses of law and the Constitution.” -
