Gentlemen, Fire Up Your Batteries

Preznit Who Cares What You Think today announced that he has completed his Torture Triumvirate by appointing John "There are no death squads operating in Honduras" Negroponte to head up the newly-created position of Intelligence Director, responsible for overseeing all the various agencies gathering intelligence for the pleasure of this maladministration. Along with Abu "What Geneva Conventions?" Gonzales and Michael "Gag order" Chertoff, Preznit Dress-Up now has in place three of the finest defenders of torture since the height of the Spanish Inquisition (which no one, remember, ever expects).

Ho-hum. Another day, another outrage. More evidence that we are heading pell-mell down that slippery slope to fascism, tossing human rights right and left as we go. Are you worried about a little thing like torture? You shouldn't be -- at least, Mark Fiore says you shouldn't.
