A Corny Legacy


The controversy about waterboarding prisoners to get information has been white washed. The Bush administration has dropped the issue on whether or not waterboarding is torture or merely interrogation by introducing a new form of interrogation to replace waterboarding thus making it a none issue.

Known as corn cobbing this method of interrogation does not waste water and so in environmentally friendly though it is not very friendly on the prisoner's corn hole.

Environmentalists are crying out that more pressure to grow corn for bio-fuels and now for interrogation tools will lead to a world wide shortage of food.

The Bush administration with a bill out that favours American farmers growing corn countered this argument by saying it would only be the poorer nations who would suffer, the American economy would remain strong and throbbing.

President Bush is such a fan of corn that he hopes to set an example to the nation by wearing clothes made out of corn products and building an extension on to his ranch in Texas made out of corn.

1) It's non-issue not "none-issue".

2) It's favors, not "favours".

3) Congress writes bills. Not the President. Including the bill expanding subsidies for using corn to make Ethanol and torture implements.

FEBU: Actually, neither the president nor Congress writes bills. It's the lobbyists who write legislation.

See, if you were a fact-checker instead of an editor you would have known that.
