We are opposing Mukasey11/01/07We are opposing Mukasey
Posted by Raj Purohit
We have been following the AG nomination process closely and decided yesterday that we needed to oppose Mukasey - here is our statement: “Citizens for
Global Solutions opposes the nomination of Judge Michael Mukasey for United
States Attorney General because of his unwillingness to support long-established international legal standards related to
torture and interrogation. An individual unable to state on the record that
waterboarding is torture cannot be trusted to hold the position of Attorney
General. The United States
is a nation of laws and our standing in the world has eroded in recent years
because the current administration has flouted well-established
legal norms. The Senate must prevent a continuation of this negative trend and
should reject the nomination of Judge Michael Mukasey.”
