Bush Says He Doesn't Know The Definition of "Human Dignity"

@ 05:07 PM (24 months, 1 day ago)

From today's press conference:

THE PRESIDENT: This debate is occurring because of the Supreme Court's ruling that said that we must conduct ourselves under the Common Article III of the Geneva Convention. And that Common Article III says that there will be no outrages upon human dignity. It's very vague. What does that mean, "outrages upon human dignity"? That's a statement that is wide open to interpretation. And what I'm proposing is that there be clarity in the law so that our professionals will have no doubt that that which they are doing is legal. You know, it's -- and so the piece of legislation I sent up there provides our professionals that which is needed to go forward.

We are so screwed! The President of the United States doesn't know what "human dignity" means.

I am speechless!
