  2. If everything someone thought they remembered me saying three years ago ended up on Drudge, I would be one miserable person.
    Just saying.

  3. There should be a siren for this.
    Army officer with a key role in the U.S. military hearings at Guantanamo Bay says they relied on vague and incomplete intelligence and were pressured to declare detainees “enemy combatants,” often without any specific evidence.

  4. Actually, they said they were going to eat some “pizza,” which of course is lesbo-liberal-commie-covenspeak for “small children.”

  5. Good catch there, Ugh — the NYT had a story on the “let’s run ’em through the CSRT again,” but this affidavit is even better. Let’s get this man to a Congressional hearing.

  8. The comments on PoliticalPunch are just plain deranged. James Inhofe “mispoke” (lied) about something — that proves that Clinton and Boxer are Nazis. Wow.

  9. PS: publius: yeah, ix-nay on the iren-say, OK?
    But props for the typography on the “correction”. Uncle Matt would be proud of ya!

  10. 2nd Update: Awesome siren graphic removed at request of certain weenie commenters who couldn’t handle its awesomeness. Like Neo, they weren’t quite ready to experience The Source.

  12. Now publius, that is really horrifying and typical of the kind of liberal chicanery that one comes to expect from these looney left sites. You change the content of the _main_ post and you put the upgrade in the comments? And you didn’t even put a link to the siren graphic so that readers who come to the post late cann’t judge for themselves? For shame, sir, for shame. [grin]

  15. I have to agree with LJ. What about those of us that can’t check until the evenings (stupid BESS) and missed out on the siren experience?

  16. Socratic_me: I think you can see it — well, now I can’t find it there, but I’d swear I had seen just such a siren on Drudge.
    It was cute, but then, um, distracting 😉

  18. And he’ll be in the Senate until he decides he’s had enough. James Inhofe.
    I’ll tell you when I’ve had enough!
    . . .or something. . .

  20. see, even hilzoy wasn’t ready for The Source.
    Like the old man said at the end of the Gremlins, maybe one day all of you will be ready.

  21. Darn, I have a list of all-time dreadful quotes never to be forgotten, and I know Inhofe has one of them, but where on my new computer is it?
    I think he said that he was more outraged by the outrage over Abu Ghraib than by Abu Ghraib itself. Which always struck me as some sort of horrible nadir.

  22. Aaaaah: here we are.
    “Yesterday’s Senate hearing on prison abuse in Iraq had been underway quite a while, and James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.) had heard all he could stand.
    It was not his colleagues’ windy speeches that incensed him, nor photos of U.S. soldiers mistreating Iraqi detainees. Rather, Inhofe said when his turn finally came, he was fed up with all the “do-gooders” making such a fuss.
    “As I watch this outrage, this outrage everyone seems to have about the treatment of these prisoners . . . I’m probably not the only one up at this table that is more outraged by the outrage than we are by the treatment,” Inhofe told fellow Armed Services Committee members investigating the treatment of inmates at Abu Ghraib prison.”
    Inhofe. One of those exalted Solons for whose wisdom and counsel we should all be eternally grateful. She lied.

  23. “more outraged by the outrage” is one the all-time best (as in worst) quotes ever.
    oklahoma has, by far, the worst Senate representation. now that santorum is gone, i would actually vote inhofe as the worst senator (with coburn easily cracking the top 10).
    it’s actually an interesting question — how should the “worst senator” be calculated.
    for instance, you could rate them in terms of “political loathsomeness” — that would be inhofe, demint, sessions, coburn, bunning.
    but you could also rate them in terms of “most harmful” (b/c they have a lot of power. this list would be – ted stevens, mcconnell, specter, lott.
    totally different list!

  25. More words of wisdom from James Mountain Inhofe, this time on why God let 9/11 occur:

    “One of the reasons I believe the spiritual door was opened for an attack against the United States of America is that the policy of our government has been to ask the Israelis, and demand it with pressure, not to retaliate in a significant way against the terrorist strikes that have been launched against them.” – March 2002

    Classy.

  26. mattbastard,
    Well, I wouldn’t argue the “G-d” part, but the theory is pretty sober. In fact I’ve been arguing it on the CNN forums (back when they had them in the late 1990’s) that the world’s failure to condemn palestinian suicide bombings will come to bite ass in the ass later. And by condemn I don’t mean by mere word only. After all, we kept on sending $ and suported Arafat as his Al Aqsa Brigades kept on suicide bombing the israelis. The liberals even came out with the “well Israelis have tanks…” defense to legitimize it. As if the suicide bombings were a defense tactic.
    So, yea, there’s you “blowback”.

  31. Ah, my ‘ilk’. Bushitler, free Mumia. no blood for oil, etc etc etc. Is that what you were expecting, Stan? 😉
    There are many, many disparate factors that lead to 9/11. However, I am confident the Clinton admin’s reluctance to go all BiBi on the Palestinian Authority wasn’t one of them.
    Re: Andrew – I hope the Iraqi public appreciates the sacrifice he’s made growing that ugly lip caterpillar.

  32. “In fact I’ve been arguing it on the CNN forums (back when they had them in the late 1990’s) that the world’s failure to condemn palestinian suicide bombings will come to bite ass in the ass later.”
    Bite ass in the ass? Does ass have its own ass?

  33. Speaking personally as one of mattbastard’s ilk, I’d say Stan’s got us dead to rights.
    Death to America!

  34. the world’s failure to condemn palestinian suicide bombings will come to bite ass in the ass later
    Stan, I’d love to hear your examples of world leaders who haven’t condemned Palestinian suicide bombing. I’ll give you a few hours, because you’ll probably need to have a good rummage around before you can pull them out of your, uh, filing cabinet.
