#1 Any chance of Mitt cutting off their $$$?

#3 I've probably lost, oh, about a nanosecond of sleep over KSM being waterboarded. Come to think of it, it probably has about the same effect as a glass of warm milk.

#4 Same here Matt.

WB'ing while sharply rapping his instep with a camel whip would have drawn high praise as well.

#5 I think he should be WB'd during breaks in the trial

#6 Gee the 'Special' Rapporteur makes it sound like a bad thing.

#7 "The re-introduction of torture under a Romney administration would significantly increase the threat levels to (Americans) at home and abroad," Emmerson said. "Such a policy, if adopted, would expose the American people to risks the Obama administration is not currently exposing them to."

Sure. Just ask Chris Stevens...

#9 Ben appears to be telling the US a lot of things recently? Who made him a godlet?

from the UN web site: UN independent expert calls for greater protection of rights of terrorism victims


The UN special rapporteur on human rights to urge establishing a mechanism to investigate such killings


and on and on and on.

Not a word about terrorist or 3rd world assholes.
Not a single negative about pompous buffoon lawyers from the Old World. (you know that place of endless US efforts to save it..)

#14 Not only will we elect him, we will burn your building down with you all in it and sow the ground with salt after.

#17 The UN has waterboarded the world with stern letters, bullshit and debt for decades. Defund them January 21st.

#18 I had to look up 'rapporteur'. My dictionary says it is the European word for asshat.

#20 Operation Clark County?

Funny you should mention that. The local hipster weekly had a letter saying Australians wanted us to vote for B-HO.

Reasons were Australians are nice (true), their country is sound financially (probably true) AND they have a carbon tax which is true, but every Ozzie I know (yeah, small sample) will tell you they hate the carbon tax and hate being lied to by their Prime Minister who promised there would never be a carbon tax - until she needed a deal with the Greens.

#21 The UN is now less believable than The Onion (see their glowing endorsement elsewhere on the 'Burg).

#22 I like the cut of your jib DarthVader. However, if I may quote the movie Heavy Metal "The UN Building? What a dump. They turned it into low rent housing over a century ago."
