146. You read nothing other than the last sentence, did you, facts are facts, he already claims powers

he does not have under the set up, and Bush before him had notes from his lawyer that claimed the rights of torture among other things, including a fun little paragraph that discussed nasty details like the presidents right to crush a child's testicles, I assumed you started the apologetic tour back then, The "we won't pay to shut it down" bit of stagecraft is melodramatic silly nonsense and only people looking for a justification to not close an illegal gulag try to squint their eyes and believe. The entire rest of the world knows he just decided not to! the entire world accept for a few Presidential power grab apologists here in the states can clearly see that a President that re-writes his constitution to "allow him" the legal power to torture, or this new national embarrassment of a rewrite no one may even see that "allows him" the divine kingly right to kill anyone anywhere at any time with no oversight laws or limitations, they can see as clearly as that stain on our nation's soul in cuba, that the only thing keeping it open is a presidents power grab in the first place, and they can see that a President that can find flexibility in a document to assume the ultimate power of life and death over any citizen from any country on nothing more than a whim, literally a whim, as no proof need be shown anyone, is simply choosing to feel powerless in this small matter.

They see all this, and bootlicks like you defending this shit and think we are all arrogant lawless, frighteningly powerful monsters, no one is buying it, not with the constant re-writes that no man is allowed to see, you are keeping poor company, and to me, your enabling shit I have opposed since Bush the lesser started this whimsical pattern of interpretations of our laws to torture, have torture camps, keep torture camps, expand torture camps (and again great job continuing your excuse that he has no power to NOT EXPAND said camp) and now murder anyone anywhere anytime a president or even undisclosed other(s) chooses to put on a secret list, no one is fooled by the fainting spell act and the feigned lack of power to end what was done illegally to begin with.

I wondered if you started your enabling tour under Bush, because the pattern has continued without change, unless for the worse, how can you support such evil and obvious bullshit and not be consistent enough to support it when Bush started it in the first place.
