    Nice alt text.

    1. Hal   16 years ago

      Really? Because I would bet that just like Byrd, KMW did things sixty years ago that she now has come to regret.

      1. NeonCat   16 years ago

        I think you're assuming Byrd can *remember* 60 years ago.

      2. Brandybuck   16 years ago

        I don't think KMW did anything sixty years ago.

  2. Matt Welch   16 years ago

    Sweet scan job, too.

  3. Mad Max   16 years ago

    Only two comments. Let's try and get more.

    'LOL, they should force the detainees to read Sarah Palin's book. That would be torture, lol!'

    1. Bergholt Stuttley Johnson   16 years ago

      Chemtrails.

      That is all.

      1. Mad Max   16 years ago

        Has Sarah Palin asked the Tough Questions about Chemtrails?

  4. ?   16 years ago

    Sweet scan job, too.

    That's what it really looks like. Roll Call comes from birdcages.

  5. FrBunny   16 years ago

    Wokka.

    1. affordable health insurance   14 years ago

      A lot of thoughts in here

  6. Fred   16 years ago

    Haven't those Gitmo guys suffered enough?

    Sure, as soon as we done have enougth inteligence on them they should all be killed because it is posibble they coulld be iraqy terrists.

  7. Fist of Etiquette   16 years ago

    Are they voting on which Aguilera song was most irritating?

  8. sarah   15 years ago

    I don't think that the republicans care how much people suffered. It's sad because we don't know the half of what's going on there!

  9. John   15 years ago

    Sarah, I think you're totally making generalizations here. You can't say that all republicans don't care if people suffer. Please...

  10. Erin Gell   15 years ago

    I think the republicans won't stop until they've suffered even more, unfortunately. Get a grip John.

  11. Erin Gel   15 years ago

    I agree that some of the detainees already deserve to be freed. They've already been incarcerated long enough to bear the just punishment for their acts.

  12. Dexterboy   15 years ago

    I mean it will all remain and resume, but let GOP hope and understand that it's not the worst case scenario.

  13. John Robison   15 years ago

    Not a good thing. Some of the detainees have already suffered behind bars long enough. That's why they already deserve to be freed.

  14. Lindsay   15 years ago

    As long as another country does the torturing, we're in clear! Sweet, sweet justice.

    Lindsay, consultant

  15. Teresa M. Edwards   15 years ago

    Free those that are already qualified. Some of these people can still; live changed lives, you know.

    Thanks for this entry.

    Hope they will receive the legal decision that they deserve.

    Thanks,

    God had given us an earth far more better than his heaven. But our unquenchable trust for excess lust is depleting earth of its heavenly treasures. We the sinners are making our mother earth dirty. I feel blessed to join the mission run by the group. Let's raise voice from every corner of the world. May god be kind to forgive them for spoiling lap of the mother earth and putting in danger.
