It’s crazy to stop and think about how far we’ve come in just eight short years. It is now within “mainstream” right-wing discourse to condemn the Supreme Court for ruling that the President can’t lock people up for life without a chance for them to prove their innocence. Is this even America anymore?""Doocy: “So with the recent Supreme Court decision saying that detainees down at Gitmo can wind up with habeas corpus and get legal rights and stuff like that”
Stewart: Legal rights and stuff. It’s actually all been explained in Thomas Paine’s ‘A Treatise on the Rights of Man…and Sh*t’”
Kool-aid fanatic Bill Kristol makes some mind-blowingly myopic statements "a milestone towards a more decent and democratic regime in Iraq" - yes, a botched hanging after a rushed kangaroo court trial and sentancing. Awesome stuff.
Ha! Both Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert have be on fire for the last week or so.
