He hasn't seen to many prisons if he thinks that's the worst.

2340 days? Close to seven years?

Yikes.

It's hard enough to get conservatives to give up masturbating to torture pictures coming out of that pit'o'badness. Yeah, let's ignore the fact that the US is the new Nazi Germany just because of something one of their victims said. 7 years for doing nothing? Where's the site to send Osama bin Laden donations?

Frankly, he was probably including the food in his "review", since Americans seem to live on lard covered turds.

The only "remarkably offensive" aspect to this whole story was that we denied this guy due process for 7 years.

But in a hearing that classified the cameraman as an enemy combatant, U.S. officials alleged that in the 1990s, al-Haj was an executive assistant at a Qatar-based beverage company that provided support to Muslim fighters in Bosnia and Chechnya. Exec asst? Isn't that like a secretary? And Bosnia and Chechnya? Thats it? If they're throwing stuff like that in, they aint got squat on the guy.

Seriously. The man's allowed some hyberpole at this point.

We held him for 7 years and didn't even charge him with a crime.

U.S. officials alleged that in the 1990s, al-Haj was an executive assistant at a Qatar-based beverage company that provided support to Muslim fighters in Bosnia and Chechnya. This would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

Hey, with regard to Bosnia, didn't that mean the guy was on our side?

I'd be interested in what previous experience he had that he used as a comparision.

Forget death camps, Gitmo sounds like a picnic even compared to San Quentin, Pelican Bay, etc. Worst prison in the world? Sure there might be a waterboard session here and there, but you never have to worry about the cornhole or getting shivved. I choose Gitmo.

That has nothing to do with how bad the prison conditions were.

You bet your ass I would. In a ****ing heartbeat.

Being held 7 years in Gitmo under the orders of a magnanimous man such as Bush who could have very well sentenced him to death is an honor. That Sudanese cameraman should be thankful for being able to life 7 years of his pathetic life on American soil.

yes, let us look at the semantic stuff while missing the glaring obvious... I think you need to rexamine which part is semantics in regards to the OP.
