Democrat Senator Dick Durbin, who compared US troops to Nazi’s, PolPot and the KGB on the Senate floor yesterday, refuses to apologize. How much of this are we going to take?
CHICAGO Illinois- Senator Dick Durbin says he won’t apologize for comments
comparing American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Nazis and
Soviet gulags.News of the Democrat’s comparison created a buzz around the
Internet today, fueled by sound bites of yesterday’s Senate floor speech on
radio talk shows. By this afternoon, Illinois Republican Party Chairman Andy
McKenna asked Durbin to apologize.Durbin says the Bush administration should apologize for abandoning the Geneva Conventions.
Dick and his fellow Democrats are woefully unprepared to deal with the war on terror if they are still hoping to give Geneva protections to those who clearly don’t deserve them. This has gone from dissent to disgrace. Democrats wonder why people don’t trust them on national security? Please.
And who is this guy who we so brutally tortured, according to Durbin? He was the 20th hijacker from the September 11 plot. Our crimes, according to Dick, we turned down the AC and made him shiver. I wish I was kidding. Here is the account of prisoner abuse that has a Democrat Senator comparing our troops to Nazi’s,
On one occasion, the air conditioning had been turned down so far and the temperature was so cold in the room, that the barefooted detainee was shaking
with cold. ….. On another occasion, the [air conditioner] had been turned off, making the temperature in the unventilated room well over 100 degrees. The detainee was almost unconscious on the floor, with a pile of hair next to him. He had apparently been literally pulling his hair out throughout the night. On another occasion, not only was the temperature unbearably hot, but extremely loud rap music was being played in the room, and had been since the day before, with the detainee chained hand and foot in the fetal position on the tile floor.
That’s it folks, your US Nazi’s at work, fiddling with the AC.
As Indiana Republican Congressman Steve Buyer, a decorated Gulf War veteran, said on WRKO this morning, Dick Durbin, Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy represent the “hug a thug” crowd. I wish more people in positions of power would call Dick’s like Durbin on the reckless use of language. Hell, I wish EVERYONE would call him on it. I know I will by dialing his office at (202) 224-2152.
Recent guest on Pundit Review Radio, James Taranto of OpinionJournal’s Best of the Web, had this to say about Dick Durbin,
We are fighting an enemy that murdered 3,000 innocent people on American
soil 3 1/2 years ago and would murder millions more if given the
chance–and according to Dick Durbin, our soldiers are the Nazis.
