RED CROSS CONDEMNS TORTURE BILL

The International Committee of the Red Cross will contact the White House to address concerns over U.S. torture policy’s compliance with the Geneva Conventions, including: “The very broad definition of who is an ‘unlawful enemy combatant’ and the fact that there is not an explicit prohibition on the admission of evidence attained by coercion....”

BBC:

ICRC President Jakob Kellenberger said the law raised “questions” about its compliance with the Geneva Conventions on the conduct of war.

He said some points had been ommitted, such as the right to a fair trial and the ban on humiliating and degrading treatment of prisoners.

President Bush signed the law on Tuesday, saying it would save US lives.

Will dope addled gasbag Rush Limbaugh or sexual harrasser Bill O'Reilly condemn the Red Cross tomorrow? Say they're on the side of the terrorists? It's likely. We live in that kind of country. And there'll be mental midgets who parrot them. I hear them sometimes when they call in to C-SPAN's Washington Journal in the mornings.
I heard one guy on WJ say that, "Democrats don't understand trickle down morality."
Trickle down morality sounds like something Ken Mehlman might engage in at some little out-of-the-way bar or bath house. The GOP is very, very ill these days. Maybe it's quarantine time.
