The “What They Say -vs- What They Do” Edition
Send a trackback, or leave a comment, and ponder the simple fact that you can justify anything with the right sort of spin; as balbulican has been known to say on occasion, “a turd wrapped in tinfoil is still just a tinfoil-wrapped turd” — and torture, regardless of how you wrap it up, is still torture.
We Just Wanna Shoot At Something, Alright?
“uh, Mujahideen? Shoot? Right there, OK? … So, I mean, they can come at us from either direction, we don’t care. Right now we just want to shoot at anything. But preferably, like, within an hour. Because we gotta go back and sleep and eat chow and shit like that.”

American Diplomacy: Nothing Surprising There
In the months leading up to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, the Bush administration threatened trade reprisals against friendly countries who withheld their support, spied on its allies, and pressed for the recall of U.N. envoys that resisted U.S. pressure to endorse the war, according to an upcoming book by a top Chilean diplomat.
