Two Birds, One Stone

As you know, I'm not happy about Congress passing the detainee bill.

But today I heard of a way to make lemons into lemonade and get to the bottom of who-knew-what in the Mark Foley instant messaging scandal: let the President use his newfound powers to 'coercively interrogate' congressmen!

Since they tell us that waterboarding and standing in cold rooms isn't actually torture, and it gets results, why not? This seems like the perfect chance to test the effectiveness of our new techniques. When they start talking about those dirty man-boy IMs, we'll know that tort... er... coercive interrogation really is the way to get things done. If they complain that, as citizens, they shouldn't be subjected to this kind of treatment, well, let's all share a hardy laugh in their honor!

Laugh or cry at what I just wrote, it's up to you.

No one else posts here, eh?

Anyhoo, my favorite moment of this nasty circus (by which I mean the Foley scandal; I've got no bright sides about the detainee act) has to be FOX News captioning Foley as a democrat, and then getting called on it by Tucker Carlson of all people.

Good stuff, good stuff.
