Politicians are funny - 2
I guess today's the day for politics. The main news story seems to be that Prez accepted Sen. McCain's ban on torture. I say: "It's about #$%^& time!" How do we exactly promote democracy, and even worse, go to "establish" (by force, of course) democracy in other oil-rich countries when we support torture (by threatening for several months to veto this ban - read the article)?
Here's the funny part: "Bush said the ban and accompanying interrogation standards will "make it clear to the world that this government does not torture and that we adhere to the international convention of torture, whether it be here at home or abroad." Wait a sec, I thought a ban is for whatever happens from now on into the future, not for what has happened so far...
