Un. Fucking. Believeable.

So get this...I am watching the NewsHour on PBS, and Carol Rosenberg of the Miami Herald, who was on site at Guantanamo today, watching the arraignments get underway on closed circuit television, is being interviewed by Jeffrey Brown. The part of the interview that made me sit up and say "What the fuck?!?!?!" was when she told us that the drugs the detainees are being treated with were not disclosed to reporters because that would violate their HIPPA rights!

Yes! They are not entitled to due process in the federal court system, but by God! we will protect their medical records from prying eyes!

Un. Fucking. Believable.

I need a drink.
