I'm watching Lindsey Graham...

...and I'm disappointed to see that he has an evil dishonest political side just like most Republicans in town. He's talking about how we never had to release POWs during WWII, so why should we have the court review the status of "enemy combatants"?

Well, how about because this is a war that's never going to end by its very nature? And how about because in this war the American side has already admitted that they've repeatedly picked up the people who weren't actually enemy combatants at all? How about because in past wars the combatants were actual POWs who were entitled to the protections of the Geneva Conventions so we knew they were being treated well, we know who they were, and there would be political pressure after the war to repatriate them (and to repatriate our own troops held prisoner). But this administration said that the Geneva Conventions don't apply to the enemy combatants we're holding, so how is Lindsey Graham comparing the apples of today's enemy combatants to the oranges of POWs held by the US during WWII. The POWs during WWII had many more legal protections than the POWs we hold today.

And finally, FDR didn't repeatedly lie to the American people. FDR didn't invade Mexico in retaliation for the Japanese bombing Pearl Harbor. This is not WWII. We have a president who is a liar. We have an entire administration that is involved in one big massive ongoing lie. They have not earned our trust, and they should not be given it until they do earn it.
