Just another brick…

But he is not the problem.
Deciding that torture is legal? That’s a problem. Deciding that the Geneva Convention is all right, but that we get to decide when and where it applies is a fucking problem. HINT: It applies to our citizens at all times but never to anyone we decide is a threat at all. Still, watch the dog and pony morality show over there. You know, the safe one where a Congressman is doing something horrible that we can all condemn, unless you’re Fox News and you report him as a Democrat (subtle there) to shift the problem further away from the point [He abused his position and also hit on and tried to bed teenagers] towards your own goal [It's a party thing]. Don’t worry about the morality of your country. Ignore it. Not as clean cut and easy to point at.
But hey, even with that we aren’t done yet.
No, first we have to build a wall on the border between the U.S. and Mexico. No, really, I’m sure it’s a good idea.
Quick quiz! How many countries have built a wall around at least part of their borders with another land in recent times?
China? Germany had a very nice wall, too.
I’m just saying.
