Bush tries to get out in front of the torture issue
Man, he sounds like Jimmy Carter!
Bush seems to have lost his touch. This won't help him with the base at all, and the rest of us already know not to believe a word that He says.
However, I find myself strangely in agreement with Bush when he says: "[No] human being aspires to live at the mercy of bullies." Especially bullies like Dick "Go Fuck Yourself" Cheney and Karl "Grub Man" Rove, not to mention The Boy Emperor himself.
In a statement to mark United Nations International Day in Support of Victims of Torture, Bush said: "Freedom from torture is an inalienable human right, and we are committed to building a world where human rights are respected and protected by the rule of law."
"America will not pretend that jailed dissidents prefer their chains, or that women welcome humiliation and servitude, or that any human being aspires to live at the mercy of bullies," Bush said in the statement.
