Fisher of men


The country is all agiggle about the reflection of Dick Cheney's hand in his sunglasses whilst on a Snake River fishing expedition, which if you're drunk or religious looks like anything from a naked woman to "never had sex" Mary.

Hardly anyone gives much of a second thought to further evidence and testimony on the AP wire today that the same hand gave a thumbs up to torturing people to get confessions.
"With each new revelation, it is beginning to look like the torture operation was managed and directed out of the White House,"
ACLU legislative director Caroline Fredrickson said. But of course the Media is "liberal" and the ACLU is "far left Liberal" and anyone is a Liberal if they're so conservative as to want to preserve and protect the Constitution. Who listens to them? Not us. Why ask the invisible man to damn America - we've done that all by ourselves.

Yeah, if the Iraqi women were walking around in bikinis instead of burkhas we would probably get a whole lot more coverage of the war.

No surprise what catches the interest of the US news.

When TV News became entertainment instead of public service it became inevitable.

Of course the whole idea of public service in return for government handouts of public property disappeared during the "Reagan Revolution"
