Fitness to serve

I was thinking that, in line with the issues we face today on both foreign and domestic fronts, it might be appropriate to add an item to our screening for presidential appointments. No one should come before the Senate for advice and consent before being waterboarded. I am certain that if Mukasey had experienced this procedure he would not have so much trouble deciding whether it constituted torture or not. The weasel in the White House came to Mukasey's defense by saying the nominee had not been fully briefed on this issue. Well, what could inform him better than to experience it first-hand?

You want to be Attorney General? Then you should know what you will be authorizing. Or, perhaps, you might realize that no sane person with any morals would ever authorize such a procedure.

Might do a world of good for Dick the dick and President pissypants too. Whaddya think?
