Apparently he supports US policy that denies rights to Guantanamo Bay detainees.

"He called the decision "progressive" and "remarkably just",  citing the fact the Bush Administration opted to provide the inmates with food, water, shelter, blankets and the ability to practice their religion.

Imagine that - it's ok to torture and deny rights as long as they a fed.  This is his new definition of "progressive"?

He also channeled Bush all the way and said that Gonzales' defense of torture memos had to be understood in the context of September 11.

This is beyond disgusting.....
