I feel different than I did when they executed Saddam. Tom Send a noteboard - 02/05/2011 05:34:03 AM
The way that whole thing was handled just looked dirty and petty, and it was almost the representation of a failure of the US to adequately protect the legal process to keep it above the level of sectarian rivalries.

This, on the other hand, is just marvelous.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
