The Emperor is Wetting His Shorts

So knowing that he and his cabal have violated not only International Law but the US law (the very ones he took an oath to uphold) he now wants to be exempt from the law. It's nice...no? Violate the law and then pass another law exempting yourself. Is that the sort of democracy these people plan to export?

Bush seeks war crimes exceptions

The Bush administration has drafted amendments to a war crimes law that would eliminate the risk of prosecution for political appointees, CIA officers and former military personnel for humiliating or degrading prisoners of war, according to U.S. officials and a copy of the amendments.



Officials say the amendments would alter a U.S. law passed in the mid-1990s that criminalized violations of the Geneva Conventions, a set of international treaties governing military conduct in wartime. The conventions generally bar the cruel, humiliating and degrading treatment of wartime prisoners without spelling out what all those terms mean.
