    One Nation Under God - Congress is voting to make that part of the pledge a law, also under Bush's watch.

    And every single congress critter (95/100 of the Senate IIRC) that voted for it should be tossed out of office on their ass for violating their oath. How is this upholding the Constitution?

    your right, in camp delta, the prisoners have BETTER living quarters that the soldures.....

    I have heard a few soldures who are back from Camp delta complain about just such issues.

    BTW, Camp delta conformes to 21 and 22, 25 has NEVER been broken except perhaps while they were being procesed in the begining.

    right now, 70 is being borkern, however, that would be why they are illegal combatants and not POWs.

    the fact is that they are phisicly and mentaly treated no worse than a POW. writing home is the only thng they cannot do and it is sufficient enought as to have queld critics in the UN and the International Red Cross
