NEWS From My Perspective!

May 14-2009:

Democrat House Speaker Nancy Polosi's Misstep!

When Nancy Polosi said that the George W. Bush administration via the CIA mislead her and those who were privy to the torture methods, she was very unclear or just did not present herself understandably enough, to be believed.

For example, she said they (the Congress Reps), were told that they were enhanced methods that were being considered for the CIA's interrogative work. But she did not ask there and then, if these enhanced methods were INDEED being used. 

She also said that the impression she got at the time, was that they were not being used, but was on the table, as an option!

This is the point that has gotten her into 'Hot Water,' because she FAILED to ask whether the enhanced interrogative methods was INDEED being used, or whether they would be used also!


No Honorary Degrees For Non-Catholics Here!


A Notre Dame Catholic supporter said on MSNBC today, that the university may allow the bestowing of an Honorary Degree on president Obama, if they see fitting. Even though that contradicts the Catholic position of Pro-Life, which conflicts with his Pro-Choice position.

However, this individual went on to say further that he personally, is not against the university accepting Pro-Choice students into the fold, but would be against honoring anyone in that university, with an Honorary Degree that was not Pro-Life in belief or principle.

In other words, as I see it, this college does not flinch one bit from taking a student's tuition fees, regardless of whether he/she is Pro-life or Pro-choice. But would be biased against any student or dignitary who is Pro-Choice, from getting an Honorary Degree.

This HYPOCRITICAL position of 'Taking The Money' from any student who can afford it, but ENSURE that he or she is CATHOLIC, before giving him/her any Honorary Degree, does not speak credibly for Catholic morality!

 

Torture Is Practiced In Every Military 
Or State Security Institution
 Worldwide!

When the military in any country use torture techniques on their military or paramilitary personnel, its is hoped that introducing these methods in a Training Scenario to these men and women, will give them the experience of how or what is likely to happen to them, if captured by the enemy.

These torture techniques, even though used in a controlled environment for training purposes, is considered quite normal in all of those societies that use them. But the general public is unaware of these practices, and is never told about it.

Because it is felt that these techniques would be misunderstood, and may likely cause parents to dissuade their sons and daughters from joining the military too.

Furthermore, these practices violate the established Geneva Conventions On Warfare Behavior.
