The Onion Takes Over the Wire Services
I came back from travelling and apparently, comedy mag The Onion has taken over all major news outlets. Very funny guys.
Rumsfeld Decries Amnesty Rights Report.Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld today described as "reprehensible" and "outlandish" a human rights group's comparison of U.S. military detention facilities to a Soviet-style gulag, and he said the military goes to great lengths to accommodate the religious practices of detainees
But come on, it's not as funny the second time:
Cheney Offended by Amnesty International ReportWASHINGTON -- Vice President Dick Cheney says he's offended by a human rights group's report criticizing conditions at the prison camp for terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay.
What's next, that Bush said the same thing? Gotta know where to stop the joke, no?
