Clarity

So, Mister Bush says he only wants clarity for our interrogators, instead of those horribly vague Geneva conventions.

Well then, Mr. Bush, I have a nice clear description for you.

DON'T FUCKING TORTURE PEOPLE.

(Man, politics is hard!)

No, I agree. We need clarity on this point.

Specifically, what exactly does he not consider torture? I'd love to have him explain that in detail to the American people, maybe with photos to illustrate.

My roommate, [livejournal.com profile] dirkdada, came up with a use for Jackass today. They could explore such wacky fun areas as waterboarding and stress positions, so people fully understand what's under discussion.

In a strange way, we're probably lucky the media have only started calling torture "aggressive interrogation." With the Bush administration, we're lucky it's not called a "neural improvement initiative."
