Funny/Tragic
This is so on-point it hurts:
Iggy’s confessing that “Justin Bieber is the future of rock ‘n’ roll” — and the caption reads “Torture a man and he’ll tell you anything. Torture isn’t just inhumane, it’s ineffective. Stop it.”
This comes from the brilliant folks at or working with the Belgian operation of Amnesty International
Here’s another one:
Same caption to the Dalai Lama admitting that “A man who doesn’t have a Rolex at fifty is a failure.”
It’s worth remembering that the claque who clamored us into war more than a decade ago and are trying to do so again include many of the same people who told us torture would keep us safe.
There is no limit to the wrongness of these people — and as our Belgian friends reminds us, their dishonesty is both a moral and a practical failure.
And by the way — thanks to Iggy Pop and the Dalai Lama for their willingness to take part in this campaign.

The GOP is morally bankrupt, politically dangerous (to the extreme) and completely void of ideas beyond their unique “bland of ideology”!
