    I Shall Smite Thee Down With Righteous Vengeance and Furious....

    When I saw that the AG had lost it and collapsed while making a speech in defence of the Bush torture regime today, my first thought was that God Almighty was surely teaching these fools a lesson.

    But then he got better, so maybe it was just a warning. Who knows? Only Baby Jeebus and the Angels.

    Either way, it won't matter. These evil criminals are beyond help.

    Did you see Bush getting ignored by all the G20 leaders? That was after he had to ask the Australian PM what the G20 even was! IMHO pressure is taking it's toll. Reality is a b*tch sometimes.
