unreal Reality

via TPMuckracker:



The U.S. has just released 15 more Guantanamo Bay detainees, bringing the total number of detainees who have never been charged or tried to 485. This leaves approximately 290
detainees
, of which the government plans to prosecute about 80 in military tribunals. A portion of the remaining 200 have been cleared for transfer provided some nation will accept them. 1 detainee has been convicted in the history of the Guantanamo system. (USA Today)


Despite the failures of the military tribunal system at Guantanamo,
Defense Secretary Robert Gates says that his push to close the prison camp has run into “obstacles” from the administration’s lawyers and Dick Cheney. Cheney “opposes bringing detainees to the US under such a system, because they would receive greater legal rights.” (Financial Times)



I am having a really hard time dealing with the reality of what our country has become.


I am having enormous difficulty dealing with the reality that apparently no one really gives a shit except maybe some ACLU lawyers and a blog or two......


On a different note I just want to say thank you to my husband for helping me so much the past week - you are amazing
