The President Is Worried


Yes, he says he's seriously concerned about the triple suicide at Guantanamo. He is? When did he become worried...just yesterday? So far, he hasn't been worried at all about it. I mean he has ignored the EU, UN, OAS, Amnisty International, Human Rights Watch, and everyone else that has said to close that prison down. There have been revelations galore about mistreatment of prisoners, desecration of the Koran (which is another thing entirely), torture dressed up as a "stress interview", and only God knows what else. None of those requests from international organizations or revelations about conditions have cause His Royal Highness any consternation at all.

I'm doubtful that his newfound concern is anything other than some kind of self-serving crap that he wants us to swallow. Doubtful might be to mild a word. Let me do that over. I'm convinced that his newfound concern is anything other than some kind of self-serving crap that he wants us to swallow.
