Who Would Jesus Torture?

I heard that on "Air America" radio & liked so much I stole it. ;)

The republicans passed the torture bill recently. On "Air America" radio, Tom Hartman was talking about the bill. He said the supreme court would strike it down, as it's plainly unconstitutional, because it does away with habeas corpus.

Which means w. could declare any US citizen an "enemy combatant", imprison them indefinitely & not allow them to challenge their imprisonment.

We know that torture doesn't work. Victims being tortured will say anything just to get the torture to stop.

Do cops torture suspects? No, because they know the evidence produced would be inadmissible in court.

The same kind of evidence that would be allowed under the torture bill.

How would you like to be convicted by evidence that was gained by your torture?

Also, you won't be able to see the evidence against you, because the bush regime calls it "classified info".
