Torture has a new code word: "tactical questioning"
I heard this earlier on the radio, during a news blurb about Operation Swarmer. They said we were engaging in "tactical questioning" on the ground - gee, anyone want to take a guess what kind of tactics are being used in that questioning?

8. George Carlin must be smiling.
His book "When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops" is all about softening statements to make terrible things more palatable.

We went from shell shock to post traumatic stress disorder - now it's not so bad for soldiers. Right?
