Will the media cover the violence inherent on the Left....

 

LOL! Yeah, that sounds like it was written by someone non-biased. Violence inherent to the left. HAHA.

Usually, I like it better when a cartoon makes a joke rather than is the punchline of one. Good thing he included the big copyright at the bottom...and titled it...and included his name...and his signature...and his website... This guy might be a schizophrenic, or he might be in middle-school. It's hard to tell.

Ron, his son, just came out with a memoir. He describes his father as an unflappable, affable , unknowable man who was ever skipping through his own Happy La La Land somewhere in his own mind. Unshakably optimistic, eternally out of touch.
Sounds like the perfect fit for someone in control of a gazillion nukes...

Bush Cancels Europe Trip Amid Calls for His Arrest

 

Will George W. Bush set foot in Europe again in his lifetime?

 

A planned trip by Bush to speak at the Switzerland-based United Israel Appeal later this week has been canceled after several human rights groups called for Swiss authorities to arrest Bush and investigate him for authorizing torture. Bush has traveled widely since leaving office, but not to Europe, where there is a strong tradition of international prosecutions.

 

The Swiss group and Bush's spokesman claim that it was threats of protest, not of legal action, that prompted the cancellation. But facing protests is nothing new for Bush. What was different about this trip was that groups including Amnesty International and the Center for Constitutional Rights argued that Switzerland, as a party to the UN Convention against Torture, is obligated to investigate Bush for potential prosecution.

 

Amnesty's memo to Swiss authorities cites, among other things, Bush's admission in his own memoir that he approved the use of waterboarding. From Amnesty's press release:

 

“To date, we’ve seen a handful of military investigations into detentions and interrogations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantánamo. But none of these has had the independence and reach necessary to investigate high-level officials such as President Bush,” said Salil Shetty, Secretary General of Amnesty International.

 

“Meanwhile, there has been virtually zero accountability for crimes committed in the CIA’s secret detention program, which was authorized by then-President Bush.”

 

Anywhere in the world that he travels, President Bush could face investigation and potential prosecution for his responsibility for torture and other crimes in international law, particularly in any of the 147 countries that are party to the UN Convention against Torture.

 

“As the US authorities have, so far, failed to bring President Bush to justice, the international community must step in," said Salil Shetty.

 

The Center for Constitutional Rights, meanwhile, intended to file a 2,500-page complaint against Bush in Swiss court on behalf of two Guantanamo detainees. The group will release that complaint to the public today.

Top Gear presenter Hammond had asked why anyone would buy a Mexican car during a discussion of a Mexican sports model, the Mastretta.

 

"Cars reflect national characteristics don't they?," he said. "Mexican cars are just going to be lazy, feckless, flatulent, overweight, leaning against a fence asleep looking at a cactus with a blanket with a hole in the middle on as a coat."

 

Opps, those rascally Brits: time to apologize to the Mexican ambassador. Dohh!
