Just an FYI
For those who wonder where I get the idea that some of the behaviors this Administration is taking in our names is making us LESS secure, not more so...
There's this report from a European human rights organization, which says pretty much what I've been saying all along: That we're doing more to recruit members to al Qaeda and similar groups than we are to shut them down.
This particular report makes the argument with regard to Guantanamo Bay.

Believing that from that source???
Surely you have better places to read editorials than that....?

Care to tell me what you find objectionable about the source?
I don't know this particular source, I tend to lend some credence to foreign news sources only because the one thing both sides of the political spectrum seem to agree on is that our news HERE is biased.
The conservatives rail endlessly about the "left wing media", while liberals claim that the media isn't covering anti-Bush things (like the Downing Street memos, actual costs of the war, real footage of the hell that war is, etc).
So I have a tendency to like to read foreign sourced material. Not that it's less biased, but since one of my premises on disliking this President is the dislike for our nation which he has managed to build out of the goodwill of the immediately post-9/11 days, it's interesting to me to see what other countries are saying about us.
