These folks consider it torture if you don't say please and thank you.
Playing loud rap, now that is torture.

How about holding someone's head underwater until they pass out?
How about hanging them by their dislocated shoulders and breaking
their legs?

How about if we enforce our own laws?

" yellowcake documents"

While these particular documents might not have been good, British
Intelligence still stands by the attempt to buy the material, conveniently
didn't mention that, huh? Check the speech, the statement referred to
British Intelligence .

Non sequitor. The transgression was not the highly publicized
though hardly significant statement in the SOTU message. It
was submitting the forged documents to the IAEA as if they
were genuine. That was a clear, deliberate obstruction of the
inspection program.

As you your use of 'may', I assume that was a manner of speech
and you do not consider the authenticity of the documents to be
in dispute.
