Who Admits This?

CNN has an article posted about the Military's methods of interrogation on the Afghani detainees. Essentially, the article speaks of whether or not the military tortured the detainees, but there is an absolute gem of a sentence in the article: "But the documents include interviews with some interrogators who acknowledged slapping the detainees -- a technique they learned during survival training at the Army's SERE school."
Let me repeat this because it's so goddamn funny: A technique they learned during survival training... That's right, the army teaches the our soldiers, some of the best equipped women and men on the battlefield, to slap the shit out of people. Okay, come on, you have to be fucking kidding me. They don't get to learn secret ninja techniques, no sir, they just sit and watch HBO's Pimps Up, Ho's Down for hours at a time.
Thank you CNN for such a good laugh.

This was also in another article on CNN. It has to do with the sexual abuses enacted by the church. This, again, is taken a bit out of context but is still hilarious, and probably should be a sentence left out of such discussions: "It is important that those who have suffered be given loving pastoral attention."

I have a sick mind and I fucking love it. I hope you do to.
