All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

...can anyone explain to me how committing suicide while imprisoned indefinitely without trial constitutes an act of warfare?

Oh I know, Fay. We were literally laughing hysterically watching that on the news yesterday. I mean, do they really think anyone would take that seriously?
I'm really hoping the woman who had to say that at the press conference resigns. I just freaking boggled when I heard that on the news.
The hell?
The fuck?
Are we really suspected of being this stupid?

Oh, that was no woman, that was the Guantanamo camp commander, who AFAIK continues to stand by his words and by the crack-addled thought nonprocess behind them, or at least did continue as of early Saturday. He may possibly have suffered a sudden bout of humanity since then, but I doubt it.
Are we really suspected of being this stupid?
Sadly, I think so.
I have been reading up on Iran-Contra scandal, and I have to say, I could have told those guys that the US is impervious to shame.
(The citizens, more of a mixed bag, but boy howdy the barefaced chicanery as a matter of policy.)
(I don't know whether it's reassuring or depressing to recall that this state of affairs, the state where the government is smugly always in the right on foreign policy matters, is not entirely new.)
God, I can't believe that they think we're so stupid.
