Lately, some of us kossack liberal whiners have had our panties in a twist about the Maher Arar case.
But here's why we should untwist our knickers and stop worrying and just sit back and relax and we should let the Bush-Cheney Administration have the benefit of the doubt.
Andrew C. McCarthy, a steadfast Bush supporter, responds to the liberal whiners:
http://blogs.usatoday.com/...The case of Maher Arar, a Canadian Muslim allegedly tortured in Syria after being taken there by the CIA, warrants scrutiny. [...] But with the lives of 300 million Americans at stake, the United States cannot make national security policy based on individual anecdotes about government roguishness.
Andrew C. McCarthy, a former assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted terrorism cases, is a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.
So cool down liberals! Maher Arar is
(1) only a Canadian, and
(2) only a Muslim, and
(3) only
ALLEGEDLY tortured, and
(4) gonna get his case properly scrutinized
REAL SOON NOW what's your hurry, and
(5) only one of those broken eggs required for this (
oops, secret, can't show it to you) omelette, and
(6) only a character in an apocryphal anecdote, and
(7) even if that anecdote's true, it's just ROGUEISHNESS for chrissakes you liberal whiners, don't you know there's a war on?
