A Rwandan Catholic Priest was sentenced to life in prison by a U.N. Tribunal for his role in the 1994 genocide. I'm a little confused as to how killing 1,500 people inside of a church is doing the work of God. But then again, I'm not Catholic, nor was I in Rwanda. In all seriousness, this guy is totally getting what he deserved.
The best part about it? He originally only had a 15-year sentence, but decided to appeal it and BOOM: extended his sentence to life in prison. Too bad the U.N. doesn't liberally throw firing squads into sentencing. This guy would be a well deserved recipient of that.

In other news, America is moving one step closer to a police state. Bush has said he will veto the House bill that requires telecommunications companies to defend themselves to judges behind closed doors for illegal wire tapping as part of Bush's unofficial Save America By Violating the Constitution and the Rest of America's Civil Liberties, campaign (I call it SABVCRACL for short). These telecom companies have been working with the federal government to undermine our rights by listening into phone calls illegally. Instead, Bush would rather back the Senate bill which, surprise, gives immunity to the companies.

I really enjoy how, in order to feel more safe, we have to remove more and more of our rights. I hope when Bush leaves office, he gets the actual Constitution and takes a big ol' crap on it. Cause, metaphorically speaking, that's what he's been doing while he's been in office. Might as well make it official right? I love tyranny. I also really like quasi-dictators under the guise of democracy. And rainbows and flowers.
