George W Bush's BBC interview
I saw this yesterday, and I didn't see it get mentioned. Pretty much everything coming out of his mouth lends itself to being a choice quote or a topic for careful parsing. For example,

Frei: But, given Guantanamo Bay, given also Abu Ghraib, given renditions, does this not send the wrong signal to the world?

Mr Bush: It should send a signal that America is going to respect law. But, it's gonna take actions necessary to protect ourselves and find information that may protect others. Unless, of course, people say, "Well, there's no threat. They're just making up the threat. These people aren't problematic." But, I don't see how you can say that in Great Britain after people came and, you know, blew up bombs in subways. I suspect the families of those victims are - understand the nature of killers. And, so, what people gotta understand is that we'll make decisions based upon law. We're a nation of law.

I even posted one early this morning. Others posted yesterday or overnight.
We all agree - the lunatic is incoherent and delusional
