"Oh, crap ... NOW you've done it!"


From the "Dumbest Thing You Could Possibly Have Said Under the Circumstances" Department:

"The House and Senate have now spoken loud and clear, with a single message -- the United States will not permit cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment. The only way this standard could fail to pass the Congress now is through closed-door negotiations that defy the will of the majority of members of the House," said Elisa Massimino, the Washington director of Human Rights First.

Yeah, and what are the odds of that?
