Question for my American friends
You know I hate to bring up that imbecile of a President of yours, but...the news today appears to be that those poor ambushed US soldiers were tortured to death. Given Abu Ghraib, which most of us have pretty well forgotten now, but not the rest of the world, and given the festering sore that we call Guantanamo Bay, how is Bush going to play this? Will he really have enough chutzpah to claim that this kind of despicable action is savage and totally foreign to American values? We all KNOW it is foreign to American values, but it doesn't seem foreign to Bush Administration values. So how's he going to reach for the moral high ground, when he doesn't have any left?
I still have not gotten over the US general last week who said that the 3 suicides at Gitmo were an aggressive act of asymetrical warfare. That is beyond Orwellian. Did he ever explain how any American or coalition soldier or civilian was in any way threatened by these suicides? I'm sick of this.
One last Bush thing. I saw an article where Bush was quoted using words like "cat" and "dude" to describe Al Zarqawi among others. White House = Frat House. You guys really have to get rid of this clown.

I endorse Rattansifan's comments (and I'm not American!). We all know that America (generally speaking) is an irony-deficient country, so what else can you expect?
Guantanamo is a sore point with a lot of Australians because we still have one of us in there (David Hicks) - he's just been allowed to take out British citizenship, but the Americans won't let a British official go there to swear him in because Hicks is not British, so not entitled to have their officials visit. Work that one out!!! He's taking out British citizenship because our government refuses to have him released and all the Brits have been. Don't get me started on this, I'll clog up the blog for days!!!!
