you know what i think?

from the post, about bush meeting with dissidents:

"He likes to talk to people who have experienced these things firsthand," said Michael J. Gerson, Bush's strategic policy adviser, who sat in on the Kang meeting Monday. "But there clearly is a signal here and a symbol that human rights is central to our approach, that there is a kind of moral concern."

he wants a first person account of what it feels like, the grisly bastard, so that when he uses those techniques in gitmo and other secret prisons he's got stashed around the world, he'll know how much pain it really does inflict. he's a sick bastard. i know this from the bottom of my heart.
