A fun 35 minutes.

Thiessen was Bush's former speechwriter, FYI.

What an odious waste of a human being. And I mean that literally. There's no way this guy doesn't smell like methane and rotten meat. Classy too, having an airplane on the cover of his book.

Jane Mayer's commentary in the New Yorker on Thiessen's book .

Just reading this second-hand commentary, not even the actual book, makes me physically ill.

Wow, you're just now reading it? I thought you would have been all over that shit like Daniel Sunjata on bug-fuck crazy conspiracy theories about 9/11.

I am nauseated over the idea that someone could refer to "torture"-- the inflicting of excruciating pain-- as an "enhanced interrogation technique" to gloss over the cruel nature of this abhorrent practice. Absolutely abominable.

Yeah well, some people just don't have any empathy. I don't care what anyone says, they're the true villains of our world.

"Those who are being tortured will say anything."

Why is this such a hard idea to grasp? Workable information...from merciless beatings and slow torture?

At least the lunatics in the church knew better. Do you confess? Do you convert? Other heretic cells? Good, thanks! Ok burn 'em anyway just to be sure!
