Tw getting somebody's ideas wrongly fixed is the usual road, yes.

He's a lot better at troubleshooting autos than at the people arts, like politics.

Yeph. Agent Orange killed that flea. Problem solved. Cheney would be proud of me. And now everyone asks where I bought the new carpet.

From the BBC of 8 Dec 2007:

UK Guantanamo four to be released
Four of the five British residents held by the US at Guantanamo Bay are to be released, the BBC has learned. ...
The Americans accuse Mr el-Banna of being a prominent al-Qaeda recruiter and financier, Libyan Mr Deghayes of associating with al-Qaeda, and Algerian Mr Sameur of receiving combat training in Afghanistan.

Suddenly they are no longer dangerous? By torturing them with the words from god as told to George Jr, then these evil men have been repatriated? After spending years in prison without judicial review or writ of Habeas Corpus, then suddenly these four men are no longer part of an "international world wide organized evil empire of terror"? Wow. Maybe the Nazis had to right all along. Torture does work.

Did George Jr also convert the bogeyman after only asking questions in a secret underground White House prison chamber? Suddenly UG and classicman no longer have an enemy to blame for everything? What will they do?

A secretly released CIA tape proves that Hitler's bastard son, living in South America, has been secretly supplying Al Qaeda with weapons. Now we can 'Pearl Harbor' Brazil. That will make Urbane Guerrilla so happy. Guantanamo is conveniently placed to make this work. It's good to know how Guantanamo can reform terrorists. Even the most evil terrorists with stiff upper lips.

I'm so pleased the George Jr administration is protecting Americans - a specific reference to the type of people Urbane Guerrilla so approves of and a government that would even deny this happened. Since "Saddam has WMDs", then what's wrong with a few more lies. From ABC News of 10 Dec 2007 is a question of how often does Haliburton work for the greater glory of America. As made obvious from George Jr administration actions, this is all good for America:

Gang-Rape Cover-Up by U.S., Halliburton/KBR
A Houston, Texas woman says she was gang-raped by Halliburton/KBR coworkers in Baghdad, and the company and the U.S. government are covering up the incident....

"I said, 'Dad, I've been raped. I don't know what to do. I'm in this container, and I'm not able to leave,'" she said. Her father called their congressman, Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas.

"We contacted the State Department first," Poe told ABCNews.com, "and told them of the urgency of rescuing an American citizen" -- from her American employer.

Poe says his office contacted the State Department, which quickly dispatched agents from the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad to Jones' camp, where they rescued her from the container.

According to her lawsuit, Jones was raped by "several attackers who first drugged her, then repeatedly raped and injured her, both physically and emotionally."

Jones told ABCNews.com that an examination by Army doctors showed she had been raped "both vaginally and anally," but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to KBR security officers. ...

Over two years later, the Justice Department has brought no criminal charges in the matter. In fact, ABC News could not confirm any federal agency was investigating the case. ...

Congressman Poe says neither the departments of State nor Justice will give him answers on the status of the Jones investigation. ...

Since no criminal charges have been filed, the only other option, according to Hutson, is the civil system, which is the approach that Jones is trying now. ... Halliburton won more than 80 percent of arbitration proceedings brought against it.

Why should they investigate. Haliburton employees in Iraq are exempt from all laws.

Her rescuers found her in a locked shipping container. Her medical exam says she was clearly raped. The evidence was lost by Haliburton - that so patriotic organization. EVen a Republican Congressman says it happened. Two years later means no criminal investigation? Begs anyone who supports the scumbag president to question his own morality. But it won't. Even questions by a Congressman means no investigation. Campaign contributions do buy protection.

Amazing how only the evil news services would report such facts. The coverup continues. Read it.

KBR said it was "instructed to cease" its own investigation by U.S. government authorities "because they were assuming sole responsibility for the criminal investigations."

What???? Why would they give the rape kit to the accused? Somethin fishy with that story.

P.S. - tw, see how I quoted the article to eliminate any confusion?
