Recently there have been articles stating,"A Team of administration lawyers concluded in a March 2003 legal memorandum that President Bush was not bound by either an international treaty prohibiting torture or a federal anti-torture law because he has the authority as commander in chief to approve any technique needed to protect the nation's security". But at the same time he has come out saying he is against torture. Then why would such a legal memorandum be necessary? Right now Bush is at the G-8 Summit telling other countries that they need to do more in Iraq. Why would anyone take seriously or meet with someone who feels that they are not bound by international treaties and laws?

I saw a homeless guy with a cell phone. If you live everywhere and I call you, haven't I just called you at home?
