sanpaku_backupU.S. to Block Torture Vote
As bad as the unilateralism Bush's foreign policy is, this is exceptionally fucked in the head, even for them.
Let's review: the Republicans blocked a treaty creating an international criminal court, tried to end the peacekeeping mission in Bosnia, and scrapped the ABM treaty. Now this. And that's just what comes to mind in the past few months. Let alone the land mines treaty, the Tokyo protocols, etc., etc. etc.... But this really has to take the cake for creating a worse world to live in.
