The emperor of the world holding his press conference right now is snickering in that hillbilly sneer of his about his veto power... snicker snicker. Then he was asked for his definition of torture, and in an irritated voice he answers, "whatever the law says" (pushed for more of an answer) he says, "we don't torture", then abruptly went on to another reporter for a question he doesn't mind answering, (that's not too hard on his policies).

(Keith O, don't ya feel pretty damn lonely over there?)
