We don't do it

Our President insists that we do not torture. The definition of torture is secret so we are asked to take his word for it. His word - ha ha ha ha. As if anyone in their right mind would take his word on anything. He is probably the world's most prolific liar and has done nothing but lie ever since he was awarded the office by a rogue Supreme Court. How do we know we don't torture when we don't know how torture is defined? In Bush's tiny mind, whatever it is, we don't do it. Most everyone else who knows anything about it says we do do it. And Bush even boasts about his renditions (no torturing there either I suppose). All around the world decent people would like to know how we can put up with the Bush/Cheney administration. What are we to tell them: we're too uninterested to bother about it? There is nothing we can do about it? Wait until after the 2008 election? We are a nation of idiots, morons, and cretins who believe that Bush/Cheney are actually protecting us from terrorists? It doesn't matter because the next administration will be just as bad? We really like the kool-aid?

It seems Hillary's negatives are less than any of the major Republican candidates. Image that. The MSM has been telling us all these months, even years, that Hillary just has too many negatives to ever be elected and it turns out that like most everything else they've been telling us, they are not giving us the facts. Facts? What facts? Facts disappeared from the MSM years ago and are no longer to be found. We know we can't trust the MSM, and we can't trust Bush/Cheney, and we can't really trust Politicians in general (who are just expected to lie and deceive us), so why bother anymore? Good question. Does anyone have an acceptable answer?

Silly me! I should have realized that Craig is willing to suffer public humiliation because it's better than maybe going to jail with his pal, Duke Cunningham. As long as he can remain in the Senate the better chance he has of being protected from the subpoena he's been served. It is most interesting that Hardball spent a lot of time discussing the Craig case but no one even mentioned the subpoena or the Cunningham case.

Why do we put up with the likes of Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Coulter, and such? Because we believe in free speech, no matter how absurd, destructive, ridiculous, malicious, or stupid it is. I personally find it impossible to understand how anyone can listen to these merchants of garbage but obviously there are those who do. Not only that, they seems to think they are patriots amd fonts of wisdome, and whatever. For the most part these are the same people who believe the earth is merely 8000 years old, humans existed contemporaneously with dinosaurs, the Grand Canyon was caused by the flood, and Jesus can drop-kick you through the goal posts of life. American culture is truly bizarre, a culture of the absurd.
