My cronies and I would sit at lunch and make puns out of everything on our trays.

I should be an honorary Brit: I do the crosswords AND the puns.

Zero reasons prove nothing useful from torture. Torture only muddies the waters. Torture makes finding truth nearly impossible. It took almost ten years to finally filter out reality because some idiot used torture.

Fine dinners do more to extract the truth. But that contradicts what a TV show called "24" taught our current flock of 'experts'.
Curious how many interrogations you have conducted on suspected terrorists? Is the merely an opinion or based upon actual experience?

Dr Who? Isn't he a Dr Seuss character? I read "Horton Hears a Who" to Addie recently

He's not dead, he's just pining for the Hindu Kushes

That's actually the grave of the guy who threw a shoe at W.

That's invisible Jeebus after his leg was amputated.

Nope. Jesus took a quick swim in my basement.


He forgot his shoe.

Tw, your deepseated and crazy hatred for America -- and by extension every living soul of mankind -- was never more clear than it is now. You don't want us to win.

Well, that's the non-human viewpoint.

As a human, I desire and require America to win, and you are a loathesome leftist.

Very seldom do I resort to this kind of language -- but for these things: damn you and damn your parents also. They could have raised something other than a fascist-sympathizing über-bitch, couldn't they have? But what do we get? -- you, as you presently are.

So, DanaC: explain, then, how inaccurately we hit Mr Bin Laden. Using, I understand, information. Spoken information.

Honestly, girl. When you follow a bad religion, stupid things come out of your mouth and your keyboard. I am very glad I am not so very like you in my thoughts and in my values. It saves me from fatuity.

But enough: the man hid. He manifestly had government help doing so. There's a fragmented and factionated government in Pakistan. He wasn't alone where he hid, either. Somebody was being, shall we say, accommodating. But the old boy's luck ran out, and in the end, the forces of good got him.
