Ex-Army Chaplain Cleared In Gitmo Spy Case Is Hussein Delegate
Comment Added Edit:
You know … I’ve been thinking. An old adage comes to mind here with Hussein.
If it looks like a duck …
Walks like a duck …
Quacks like a duck …
Don’t try to tell me it’s a fucking Golden Goose.
Seattle Times:
OLYMPIA, Wash. — A former Army Muslim chaplain at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, who was cleared of spy accusations is now a Democratic National Convention delegate pledged to Sen. Barack Obama.
Former Capt. James J. Yee was among the delegates who were elected by precinct representatives Saturday at the party’s 9th Congressional District convention at North Thurston High School.
Others chosen at the gathering were Zach Smith, a former supporter of ex-Sen. John Edwards who is now pledged to Clinton, and Natalie Stevens, an alternate pledged to Obama.
Yee, a West Point graduate, was accused in 2003 of being part of a spy ring at the U.S. prison for suspected terrorists in Guantanamo Bay. He spent 76 days in solitary confinement before being exonerated and later resigned from the Army, receiving an honorable discharge.
Yee now lives with his wife and daughter in Olympia, south of Fort Lewis, where he was assigned before and after his ordeal.
The experience left him as “living proof that civil liberties have been eroded since 9/11,” Yee told The Olympian newspaper on Monday.
He said that during the gathering Saturday, “I came out and basically reiterated that Sen. Obama is really the only candidate that consistently campaigns on rejecting torture without exception, on closing Guantanamo Bay, restoring habeas (corpus) and adhering to the Geneva Conventions.”

No he was not cleared of the charges. The charges were dropped due to the highly classified information that would have been divulged in a trial.Guilty of treason in a time of war.

May 20th, 2008 at 5:57 pmAllah akboom. Glad you are out mo fo.
This guy should have been court martialed and executed as a spy. Instead he’s a democrat delegate, along with fellow travellers Nancy Peloski, Harry Reid, Tom Liar Harkin, et al. What a joke. Ha ha ha.
