Poll question: Only "Assholes" Fret about Torture
Edited on Wed Apr-02-08 08:00 PM by Bucky
So, what genius just said "Only "Assholes" Fret about Torture"

(and no peeking!)

Xxxxx: Only "Assholes" Fret about Torture

It won't surprise anyone that the least sympathetic portrayal in Phillipe Sands' Vanity Fair piece is of X-----x X------x.

Not only did X------x play a major hand in promoting the myth of Iraq's ties to Al Qaeda before the invasion of Iraq, but he also played a major role in developing the interrogation policy for Guantanamo Bay.

X------x boasted to Sands that back in 2002, he "was really a player" in ensuring that Gitmo detainees would not receive Geneva protections. But when Sands asked him "whether, in the end, he was at all concerned that the Geneva decision might have diminished America’s moral authority," X------x got nasty:

He was not. "The problem with moral authority," he said, was "people who should know better, like yourself, siding with the assholes, to put it crudely."


Who is Mr X------x?

2. I wish Romney had the balls to name one of his sons Bruut
Or, going with the baseball theme, Baallz Romney would be a pretty cool name too.
