Rest without peace , America. You deserve none

Torture bill officially signed by George W. Bush, the President-select, at approximately 9:42 AM EST, on Tuesday, October 17, 2006.

Excerpt from Bush speech prior to signing the Torture Bill

Bush: "As I've said before the United States of America does not torture...
...it is against our laws"

1. They don't "torture"....

...They can do anything to a person--as long as they are doing it to "extract information". It's not torture if their purpose is to get information from people. In a BushCo world, it's not torture if you slap an "interrogation" label on it.

I didn't know that until I read a bit about BushCo's definition of "torture".

Hey, all you sadistic, behind-the-scenes thugs who will be engaging in "information extraction"---eat shit and die!!

You just sit and hope--that at least one of them has a conscience--and that s/he will step forward and end this bloody nightmare.

I'm so sickened. I feel trapped in a New American Century.

2. it helps to pretend you don't care

and don't make eye contact, just keep walking with a blank expression.

sarcasm overload.

[Solly Mack]

4. sarcasm maybe...but it's an accurate description of how many

people act already

7. Sounds like the expressions...

...on the faces in the movie "V for Vendetta".

I will go out singing songs, that's for sure. Something really annoying
like "Afternoon Delight" by the "Starland Vocal Band".

They torture me. I torture them.

[Solly Mack]

3. Yep. By Bush's definition - it's not torture

5. Sarah Connor's wisdom...

The SkyNet funding bill is passed. The system goes online on August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. SkyNet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14am Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug. And, Skynet fights back.

So it begins... :(

[Solly Mack]

6. Yes....and so it begins

the door has been opened

You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, Sollie Mack -- WE DESERVE WHAT WE WILL GET!!!!

You just know that after the next attack against Americans, people here will say, "Gee, I wonder what made those terrorists attack us? Why do they hate us?"
