"Now, you just cut that out!"
(Apologies to Jack Benny :-) Please run, do NOT walk, to James Lileks' current (06/13/05) Screedblog entry. In order to place Mass Media Podpeople's Army indignance at the "torture" U.S. interrogators are engaging in at Gitmo into context, Lileks has to resort to citing Monty Python (yes, MMPA whining is this bad... or worse): Vercotti: Doug (takes a drink) Well, I was terrified. Everyone was terrified of Doug. I've seen grown men pull their own heads off rather than see Doug. Even Dinsdale was frightened of Doug. Oh, just get over to Lileks' place and read as he "tortures" the kid who cries "Teacher, he hit me!" |
