Mukasey-Is-A-Tool Watch

This is a letter I sent on Friday to Senators Feingold, Feinstein, and Schumer. Just after I sent it, Feinstein and Schumer announced that they were spineless crapweasels and would be voting for Boosh's Tool, Michael Mukasey...


Dear Senator XXXXX:

I am writing to urge you to vote against the current nominee for US Attorney General, Michael Mukasey, in committee.

If Mr. Mukasey cannot determine whether or not waterboarding is torture, he is simply not qualified to act as Attorney General. Waterboarding has been widely recognized as torture since the Spanish Inquisition. Without a doubt, waterboarding is torture and must be condemned.

If Mr. Mukasey is refusing to answer the question in a straightforward manner because it might lead to prosecutions and convictions of Bush Administration officials, then he has demonstrated his unwillingness to be independent from the Bush Administration. After the fiasco of Alberto Gonzales, America needs an honest, independent Attorney General.

The US cannot be party to any further torturing of prisoners, no matter how heinous the suspected or alleged crimes. Please vote against Mr. Mukasey in committee and do not allow his nomination to reach the full Senate.

Sincerely,
John Locke
