Looks as if the Khamene’i/Ahmadi-nejad regime has decided to embrace “enhanced interrogation techniques”: sleep deprivation, sexual humiliation, prolonged isolation, slamming people’s heads into walls. Who says America can’t lead by example?

And of course if you believe the confessions extracted at Guantanamo, there’s no reason to doubt that the current Iranian uprising is a Western plot. Why, the plotters confessed to it themselves!

Of course there’s a difference. In America, we have a Constitution, and courts to enforce it. But we also have two political parties, one of which did its level best for eight years to erase that difference, while the other mostly stood by passively and watched, and neither of which is currently willing to demand an accounting.

Sorta makes you proud, doesn’t it?

Happy Independence Day, everyone.
