Every time I hear the Bush administration statements and Condi Rice say something about how America does not torture, I keep thinking, "Oh, they can say that and there's still technically room for us to hire mercenaries to carry out the torture on our behalf."
Who are they trying to kid? Most Americans don't care about torture do they? So are Bush and co. saying this for Europeans because they think Europeans are stupid? It's so odd because I know they don't really care what the rest of the world thinks so they must be trying to convince Americans of something. Maybe they are saying this for the evangelists...but then there's Pat Robertson who doesn't seem to care about torture either (it's definitely an eye, or worse, for an eye for that 'we don't turn the other cheek here, Jesus' Christian).
