[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]If you still have any doubts about whether closing Guantanamo is the right thing to do, Jimmy Carter recently cleared that up by demanding that it be closed. With any luck, he'll try to effect another one of those daring "rescue" attempts. Here's a foolproof method for keeping America safe: Always do the exact 180-degree opposite of whatever Jimmy Carter says as quickly as possible. (Instead of Guantanamo, how about we close down the Carter Center?) [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]Sen. Dick Durbin says it is reminiscent of the "Nazis, Soviets in their gulags or some mad regime – Pol Pot or others." (He then offered the typical Democrat "if/then" non-apology: i.e., "if my remarks offended anyone," based on the rather remote possibility any sentient, English-speaking adult who didn't hate America could have heard them and not been offended.) [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,][/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]Amnesty International calls Guantanamo a "gulag." Sen. Teddy Kennedy says he cannot condone allegations of near-drowning "as a human being." And Sen. Patrick Leahy calls it "an international embarrassment," as opposed to himself, a "national embarrassment." [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]On the bright side, at least liberals have finally found a group of people in Cuba whom they think deserve to be rescued. [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]In the interests of helping my country, I have devised a compact set of torture guidelines for Guantanamo. [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]It's not torture if: [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]Even the tales of "torture" being pawned off by the detainees on credulous American journalists are pretty lame. [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]The Washington Post reported that a detainee at Guantanamo says he was "threatened with sexual abuse." (Bonus "Not Torture" rule: If it is similar to the way interns were treated in the Clinton White House.) [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"Sign or you will be tortured!" [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"What's the torture?" [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"We will merely threaten you with horrible things!" [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"That's it?" [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"Shut up and do as we say, or we'll issue empty, laughable threats guaranteed to amuse you. This is your last warning." [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]One detainee in Afghanistan told a hyperventilating reporter for Salon that he was forced to stand with his arms in the air for "hours." Doctor, I still have nightmares about the time I was forced to stand with my arms up in the air ... [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]Others claimed they were forced into uncomfortable, unnatural positions, sort of like the Democrats' position on abortion. Next, the interrogators will be threatening to slightly undercook the Lemon Chicken! [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]According to Time magazine, this is how the "gulag of our time" treats the inmates: "The best-behaved detainees are held in Camp 4, a medium-security, communal-living environment with as many as 10 beds in a room; prisoners can play soccer or volleyball outside up to nine hours a day, eat meals together and read Agatha Christie mysteries in Arabic." [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]So they're not exactly raping the detainees with dogs at Guantanamo. (I still think the gift shop T-shirts that said "My dad went to Guantanamo and all I got was this lousy T-shirt" goes too far.) [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]The only question is: Why do Democrats take such relish in slandering their country? If someone was constantly telling vicious lies about you, would you believe they supported and loved you? [/font][/font]
[font=palatino, times new roman, georgia, times][font=Palatino,]"I love John Doe, and that's why I accuse him of committing serial rape and mass murder. Oh, he doesn't do that? Yes, but how dare you say I don't love John Doe!" [/font][/font]
