A Black Feather, A poison pen... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So.... lemme get this straight: He's not really a tyrannical murderous asshole when he's OUR tyrannical murderous asshole? ...great. From Hesiod a good example of Team Chimpy's two faced stand on going to war for allegedly humanitarian reasons. "Prisoners live in comfort, eat scrumptious food and play soccer. All is great," said Colonel Alikhaidar Kolumbetov, sitting in a throne-like black and gold armchair. "With time, we want to make it all like in Europe here," he told Reuters journalists who were allowed to visit Jaslik prison in Uzbekistan's western desert. But Avazov's mother, who lives in a leafy area of the capital Tashkent 1,000 km (620 miles) away, does not believe him. "Look what they did to my son in Jaslik. They tortured him in the basement and boiled him in hot water," said 61-year-old Fatima Mukadyrova, tears in her eyes, displaying photographs of a mutilated body with severe burns, cuts and bruises. The pictures clearly showed that the 36-year-old Avazov had no nails on his hands and feet and nearly all of his teeth had been broken. "Security officers wanted to bury the body quickly to avoid publicity. I said Muzafar's unborn son should see his father, in any shape. So his other son took these photos." Uzbekistan enjoys warm ties with Washington in return for its support for the U.S.-led war in neighbouring Afghanistan. But human rights activists say repression and torture are rife." I assume that if those who supported the invasion of Iraq on "humanitarian" grounds, oppose an invasion of Uzbekistan to remove Islam Karimov from power...it must mean they "support" Karimov and his murderous regime. Right? And it's funny, at the same time, the key argument you will hear a republican make from hearing this is "So, you'd rather that Saddam was still in power in Baghdad" Pathetic. New Words of the Day FRISTING (v. named for Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-TN) To attempt to spin result numbers on an opinion poll to reflect a position opposed to the actual result. It should be noted that Exessive Fristing can occasionally result in a large volume of unitended Santorum (named for PA Senator Rick Santorum who has an unhealthy fixation with unlikely potential outcomes of homosexuality) which per the definition of Dan Savage and his readers is The frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex We had some wacko moonbat (shit, around here we probably still have her) who once made similarly stupid remarks as Santorum, but since we've been collectively out in the sun too long, it wasn't quite as big a deal when State Sen. Barb. Blewster (There's a name looking for a perverse new definition no?) once postulted in session that among otner things, homosexualtiy leads to things like Satan worshipping, drug abuse, necrophilia, bestiality and cannibalism. mind-bending, eveerytime i think about it...positively mind bending. 5:35 p.m. - 2003-12-02 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
