Today the Lieberman Prize for First Rate Backstabbing Bullshittery goes to Bob Kerrey for torturing the word "partisan" until it means whatever the fuck he wants it to mean:
Sen. Bob Kerrey: Partisan torture report failed America
The money quote (emphasis added):
I do not need to read the report to know that the Democratic staff alone wrote it. The Republicans checked out early when they determined that their counterparts started out with the premise that the CIA was guilty and then worked to prove it.
And between the bellowing about Liberty from the fascist Right and the truckling about "partisanship" from the fascist-enabling Center, so shall another Conservative atrocity be folded gently up like Old Glory and shoved down the memory hole.

Okay, hang on, DG, let me see if I've got this all down correctly.
(okay, get everything ready, got my notes, got my index cards, get my voice ready - "red leather yellow leather, red leather yellow leather" - all right, i'm ready)
*EH-AHEM*
Benghaaaaazi.
Intelligence agencies need guidance to do better, Senate Democrats failed to provide it sayeth the former senator.
How about this for "Guidance?" "Hey, CIA officers: read this report. If you find your self confused, just remember that you shouldn't practice any of the 'techniques' discussed in this document, because they are both illegal, as in crimes, and immoral."
I mean, really, what more "guidance" does the Agency need?
True story: Kerrey once tried to pick me up in an airport men's room. I was like, "Dude! You're a United States Senator." He was like, "You're missing an opportunity. What do you recommend?"
No, No No,NO-no,
(not the hair remover)
Benghazi (Benghaaaazi.
You saying it all wrong.
In the Midwest it is pronounced;
Ben Gauzey
Not to be confused with Ben Gazarra, the actor nor the Ben-Gaza-Strip
So both Kerrey and Cheney have no problem slamming a report, while they both freely admit signally failing to READ THE FUCKING THING.
Got it.
Kerrey forgot to include those limp-wristed liberal generals who've been discussing this since *before* the Obama Admin. Fuckshit.
