A thought

A thought for today:

Despite a history of oppression, despite a long string of human rights violations, despite the fact we kill babies, torture prisoners, invade countries, snoop, and generally limit freedoms, the United States has, it seems, managed to make at least one man completely free.

George W. Bush.

Free of consequences. Free of accountability. Free to torture, invade privacy, extradite, invade, and generally do whatever he wants. These days, generally, even, free of criticism. I wonder if that's because the critics are getting tired.
