Tortured logic......

T’other day someone stole a ball cap from me ‘n I’m still venting about it altho’ I’m trying to forgive my trespassers ‘cuz I’d like t’be forgiven for my own trespasses......when it’s phrased that way it sounds like I’m trying to make a bargain with God, don’t it?....anyways I figure I’ve trespassed more’n enuff in my life ‘n besides, carrying anger around with you just plain has too high a price....Heck! The price of a bottle of Tums c’n give a body an upset stomach....’course, Tums is a deductable item but I bet there’s darn few people who keep good enough records to do that......
Shades of Mayberry, RFD.....I just heard that an old friend of mine (Denver ‘Bud Mullins, but don’t tell) is a deputy Sherrif in Dover, Tennessee.....dunno what that says for Bud but sheds some light on Dover, Tenn......
Took da boyz (Rusty 'n Willie) in for a bath ‘n trim....Millyrose found a new groomer.....don’t know how she’s gonna work out but she let me know right upfront that she wants t’be paid in cash....at least, this first time ‘n maybe after she gets t’know us, why then she might take a check....
Went to Davis t’other night to see Emerson Jr. High’s production of ‘Bye, Bye Birdie’....everyone does a good job ‘n I enjoyed the show but there was only one intermission ‘n those little folding chairs are torture for these old bones.....
Just so’s you know......I’m against torture. I don’t believe in it and I think most Americans are against it also. And that includes President Bush. The ignorance of the arrogant liberals is truly wearying. And as far as waterboarding (?) is concerned, it isn’t really torture. Not by definitinon anyway. According to the dictionary, torture is the action or practice of inflicting severe pain on someone as a punishment or to force them to do or say something, or for the pleasure of the person inflicting the pain.
By that definition, John McCain was the victim of torture. He was beaten, suffered broken bones, was deprived of both food and sleep, and isolated. He was tortured.
By that same definition, none of the captive terrorists at Guantanamo have been tortured. No beatings. No broken bones. They all appear to be clean and well fed and they’re certainly not isolated. They were not tortured....
