26. no, because he won't respect the law that obviously already exists
Edited on Tue Nov-06-07 12:47 PM by librechik
against torture, beginning with the Geneva Conventions, a treaty we signed which is law.

He'd rather give the President latitude to break the law when he feels necessary, and in our country we don't give the president that power. he has to obey they law just like everyone, even in wartime, or be held to account.

Bush won't do that, and Mukasey will help him.

If they get away with it, the whole basis of our free and law abiding country is corrupt.
