We're no better than the Fucking USSR

Go check out the Washington Post today. Apparantly, for the last 4 years, the CIA (read: KGB) has been operating secret detention camps (read: Gulags) in countries all over the world, where they have been holding suspects for terror on no charges and no hope of release. And they are almost certainly being TORTURED. What happened to the basic tenets of justice and trial by jury and habeus corpus that this country was founded on?!? JUST GOING OVERSEAS TO DO IT DOESN'T MAKE IT OKAY.

Why aren't we beyond this yet?

I shouldn't ever have to be ashamed to be an American.
