PRE-EMPTING

The bushies have figured out that their secret shit is not going to fly and so they are letting it go a piece at a time.

Today, he admitted that the secret CIA prisons exist off shore.

The Pentagon has issued its new interrogation guidelines without the off-Geneva conditions for 'special cases'.

He has said that they would close Guantanamo.

This is all progress. Except that they should never have done this shit in the first place.

They are criminally culpable.

It is too bad that they are forced to do the right thing so cynically and in the face of political setbacks.

They should pay at the polls for it. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

I suspect this is all part of a larger strategy for gaining ground on the 'war on terror' or whatever new name they have for it.

They pre-empt criticism and then go back to the same stuff after November.

Why don't I trust them to keep doing the right thing?
