Sen. Vitter and the Eighth Amendment
Posted by

Some obscenely partisan Democrats have proposed a campaign to send dull steak knives to Wendy Vitter, so she can carry out her "Lorena Bobbitt" threat.
Have we learned nothing from Abu Ghraib? Yes, Sen. Vitter has disgraced his office, and yes, he voted with the rest of the Republicans to allow torture, but cutting off his pecker with a dull steak knife represents a degree of cruelty even John Yoo couldn't defend. I propose instead that we send Ms. Vitter
sharp steak knives.
Moderation, my friends. Moderation in all things.
