"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Congress to Clash With Bush Over 'Torture' Technique
Submitted by strike on Thu, 2007-12-06 16:00
"Congress is set to clash with George Bush on the contentious practice of waterboarding and other harsh interrogation techniques as it prepares legislation on intelligence funding. Senate and House officials have included the ban on waterboarding - condemned by human rights groups as a form of torture - in their respective bills authorising 2008 spending for intelligence programmes." Indeed, as effectively as they have "clashed" over Iraq...Perhaps the Brits have a different, more roll over and play dead type, definition of clash?
