Christ ...

Our Idiot King is making a fool of himself, and us, across the pond. Now, it's bad enough he acts like an idiot here, but the people in Europe already think we're idiots. Now they'll know we are.

Rep. Peter King was asked by the UK Parliament what kind of facility Guantanamo Bay is. This was after describing it as a vacation destination for prisoners. He was asked to justify how America could torture them and then call enhanced interrogation. It was just a little bit uncomfortable. He shrugged it off and said it wasn't really that bad because our military trains with it and hey, if torture saved lives it was all worth it. Usually that's the type of justification that you might hear someone from the Pinochet regime invoke.

I wonder if they asked him, off the record of course because the Brits have something known as tact, mostly, about his affiliation with the bomb throwers in Northern Ireland. You know, known terrorists. Just saying.

God, what an asshole.

Going international. I figured Petey would try something different to catch up to Steve King. If only one of the Brits had asked him if waterboarding IRA prisoners would be OK with him.

Hello Fixer,

He is the poster child of Assholes. My only consolation is whenever he leaves this mortal coil his destination (vacation spot) needs SPF infinity.
