More Bushit: "Freedom to do what you need is the freedom to do what I demand."
And yet more Bushit: "Withstanding international scrutiny means withstanding the scrutiny of the only nation that matters: Us."

This guy can piss away any sense of being fair and high-minded—well, as fast as the Big Dog can unzip... And which'd you rather?
"I think he ought to receive the ultimate penalty ... for what he has done to his people," the president said. "I mean, he is a torturer, a murderer, they had rape rooms. This is a disgusting tyrant who deserves justice, the ultimate justice. But that will be decided not by the president of the United States but by the citizens of Iraq in one form or another."
