Reply #4: This is an incredibly pathetic argument.First ,a man like Schumer needs to [View All]

explain why he is voting for a scumbag like Alberto Gonzalez who goes against every principle our party stands for.That man supports torture of prisoners and was seeking a way out of the Geneva conventions on the treatment of prisoners, a treaty we have ratified. That man calls these conventions "quaint".What would be the reason Schumer would approve of torture himslef? And why is Hillary Clinton being given a free pass on this the most important issue of our time. To claim that these two have a 95% ADA rating is a ludicrous demonstration of how pathetic we have become as a party.

These two must be asked to ask why they voted for the Iraq War Resolution and why they now support the nomination of Alberto Gonzalez. Thay have no business calling themselves Democrats if they subscribe to the idea that torture of prisoners is an acceptable form of behavior for civilized nations.
