- O'REILLY: But if the public doesn't know what torture is or is not, as defined by the Bush administration, how can the public make a decision on whether your policy is right or wrong?
BUSH: Well, one thing is that you can rest assured we're not going to talk about the techniques we use in a public forum. No matter how hard you try because I don't want the enemy to be able to adjust their tactics if we capture them on the battlefield.
Yeah, fuck democracy. The idea that people should be able to make an informed decision about how we think our country should conduct itself is for douchebags.
I can't believe I agree with Bill O'Reilly (assuming that was a serious question). Please, nobody tell my father-in-law.
My favorite line of reasoning in this debate is that we “don’t want the enemy to be able to adjust their tactics if we capture them on the battlefield.”
What the fuck? Like they are going to train on how to be able to resist a car battery strapped to their genitals, or hold their breath for a prolonged session of waterboarding.
Fuck this whole mess. I’m ashamed to be linked with this government (if only by the association of being a citizen).
yup. it’s baffling. it’s like living in Bizzaro World.
Prolly shoulda read mr bogg prior to posting, as he covered my thoughts (again!!).
good weekend, Cleek.
mr bogg gets there early. but there’s no harm in thinking the same thing – him’s smart.
