Only my opinion but the powers that be always seem to give past Presidents
Immunity from prosecution, or an automatic pardon, just as they have now
with those in charge of the torture programme.

Read in the Evening standard last night ,that a young lady escaped with her life, after being rammed in her car from behind
and being wedged underneath the trailer of an articulated lorry (semi to our US guys) .Any how the vehicle, that did the ramming, was a tipper truck!!.Now is it me, or is it every time ,some one is killed or injured on the streets of London ,a
tipper truck is involved . 8-)

I think Nixon was pardoned by Ford for the Watergate scandal.
The torture story coming out of America has taught me
Something new, an expression I never expected to hear
On BBC radio 4, " An*l Feeding" . Never even knew that
Existed.
People in power, never really have to pay for their crimes.
Their mates, always find loop holes, to explain their actions
And down grade them to minor actions, perfectly justified.

Speaking of all things toilet, last night my daughter bought her Guinea Pig a

Well some do end up in prison, such as leaders from the civil war in the Balkans. The danger of getting imprisoned isn't great, but it's there. Here is an interesting map. Members of the International Criminal Court, non-signattory countries and non ratifying countries. The non-signatory nations are pure dictatorships, countries that don't really bother pretending they care about human rights. For some reason India is in this group.
The non-ratified are those who try to at least pay human rights lip service, but don't care enough to be a member: Russia, Egypt, Iran and ........ USA.
Sad to see how little of the Middle East is represented here.
I wasn't aware of the International Criminal Court so looked it up on Wiki. Interesting that all of the official investigations so far are of African countries... Surely there must be some other deserving nations too...
Watched part of tonight's "Question Time". Russell Brand is an unmitigated *%^£!!... oh, the filters won't let me use the appropriate term, but it refers to a part of the human body not unconnected with waste disposal.

Barbel, the reason I like Brand is that he's a sort of balance to the Fascist/Capitalist mentality- he's as wrong, but in the opposite direction. More parts of the human body not unconnected with waste disposal on that side of the fence can be useful in nonsensical political discussion IMO.
Like Kirk said in Star Trek VI, the truth is usually somewhere in the middle.
The long suffering mrs geff was working til 6 the other night. The 10 miles or so into my tin-pot piss-bucket of a city usually takes about 25mins if traffic is ok. So, dutifully I set off at half five, micro securely fastened in her seat and fired up the jaaaag toot sweet to retrieve the mrs from the daily onslaught of purgatory.
A pootle through the back roads goes well, until I join the 'bypass'. I use the term as loosely as Mily Silage terms herself 'talented' or Kim kardashian terms herself 'clothed' because the bypass seems to do anything but bypass anything. In fact it's a magnet for jams, it's so bad that I'm suprised the local council haven't instigated a pay and display system for it.
So I think I have a nifty plan to bypass the bypass... and I end up in car park traffic. I then turn around and with head bowed, embarrassingly rejoin the queue of traffic I so smugly turned off from half an hour earlier, muttering 'so long, suckers' as I did so.
I then queue some more. And crawl, and stop and start. Everywhere I go, or look it's nose to arse traffic at a stand still. What the hell is going on??!
Well, I'll tell you what was going on.
In the middle of my 1 trick pony tin craphouse of a city there is a square. A square so tiny that with a favourable wind and a full bladder you could probably piss from one side to t'other. Someone had the bright idea of planting a big stupid red advert, otherwise known as the coca cola truck.
This 60ft long traffic magnet shamefully visits towns and cities about the land to spread festive che... Hang on who am I kidding? It's a sodding 20 ton coke ad that attracts stupid **** nutters and invites them to have their picture taken with it.
Yes, that's right, people were queuing in traffic for hours, and even arriving an hour after the 'event' had closed to have their picture taken with a truck. And it doesn't even look like the one used on the advert!!
Oh but you do get a free tiny tin of coke for your efforts.
So after sitting amongst these fecking plebs trying to go gurn at the large crimson artic, I eventually collect the mrs and returned home 2 whole sodding fecking bastard shitty hours later.
Oh and I saw Russell brand on bbc's question time tonight and yes, it's official, he's a **** bellendy wendy, and he can stick his booky wookies up his rusty sheriffs badge.

I'm just so sick of these celebrity 'I'm really one of you guys' bastards.
He's not 'one of us', he doesn't worry where the next meal comes from, or if he can heat his home over the winter months, he can afford to live off his interest and apparently even dodges taxes, just like the people he 'campaigns' against.
When asked if he'd consider standing for election he replied he wouldn't as he 'didn't want to become one of them'.
Is Mr Brand really interested in making a difference to the lives of the working class and poor communities or is he really just upping his social presence and enjoying an inflated amount of publicity in the process?
The Bloke that lives in the Flat below us has gone on Holiday and he must have forgot to switch his Alarm Clock off, because there is this constant Beeping thats been going non-stop for the last few Days X-( The Neighbors are being driven mad as well

Please enlighten me if former presidents can be made accountable for what they did in Office ?:)
