Replying to 258 Pages of Evidence
So, the White House has released 258 pages of information pertaining to the memorandum from the justice department that stated that in the war on terror, regulations on actions like torture, undertaken by agents of the commander in chief, do not apply. This is mainly due to the assertion that Al Qaida is not a state, and therefore its members do not deserve the rights extended to soldiers and members of an opposing force in a war by the Geneva Convetion Rules. I've got them, and I'm going over them, though 258 pages is a lot to get through... here's the best sample I've seen.
'I accept the legal conclusion of the Attorney General and the Department of Justice that I have the legal authority to suspend the Geneva Conventions.'
Signed, George W. Bush.

In a haze
A stormy haze
I’ll be around
I’ll be loving you
Always
Always
Here I am
And I’ll take my time
Here I am
And I’ll wait in line
Always
Always...
