I mean, you have thousands of permanent detainees, and some broadcast corporations have poor Nielsen ratings. If only there was some way to reduce the prison population, as well as revitalizing the entertainment industry.

But I'm talking about something more permanent. Photo op: "Obama uses Hussein as footrest while doing Sunday crossword. Here's a pic of Bin Laden giving the presidential pooch a curly pink perm."

You'll forgive me if I dismiss you as a Nazi bastard?

If not. I don't care.
Well, there are two possibilities here:
1) I'm 14 years old, think Hitler is cool, and think slavery should come back, except with Muslim captives instead of Africans.
2) I'm being "ironical," making fun of Koolay's cheap appeal to emotion vis a vis slavery in trying to re-inject the idea of governmental oppression in a thread that was apparently (and finally) going to be about something else.

You can choose whichever option you think is right, but I think my astounding ability to write a grammatical sentence should give you a hint.
