"If we keep going the way we're going with civil liberties, other countries are going to see us as a patsy," said Marta Salcedo, manager of a dental office in Manhattan. "You have to change with the times." Salcedo said she had little regard for the rights of suspects held in connection with the attacks. "They should torture them," she said. "Sometimes you have to do things that are uncivilized." --Most Americans Back U.S. Tactics, Washington Post, 11/29/01

And This Here's My Salt Lick...
Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin rattled around Bush's Texas ranch in a pickup truck and feasted on mesquite-smoked beef -- and pressed toward an understanding on U.S. plans to develop a missile defense system. In blue jeans and boots, Bush pulled up in a white pickup truck to greet Putin at a helipad on his ranch. "I want to show him some of my favorite spots on the ranch," the president said. "I still know how to drive," said Bush, possibly joking about his famed lack of applicable skills in just about anything, unless he wasn't. "Missile defense is a big scary thing and I want Mr. Pootan to understand we have neat expensive rockets and my friends want to build more and I'm not here to understand what it all means even though I still know how to drive!" he added, giggling and gunning the engine and fiddling with the radio knobs as Putin sat in the passenger seat, rubbing his temples and shaking his head and sighing.
