Shorter President Bush: L'etat, c'est moi
(For those who prefer not to struggle through Marty Lederman's legalese here's the sweet summary: Your president signed McCain's anti-torture law and immidiately afterwards released a "signing statment" in which he promised to ignore the law whenever he felt like it.)
As one of my email correspondents put it:
WE DO NOT TORTURE
unless we torture
in which case
we are not illegally
torturing
which we never do anyway
get it?
