(From the notebooks of "Jacob Freeze")
Sometimes I wonder why Congressional Democrats and the leading Presidential contenders never mention Mohammed Hagi Fiz, who was arrested on the basis of an "al Qaeda card" that turned out to be a bus pass for Oraguz, tortured for 8 months in Guantanamo, and released without being charged with any crime.
A simple Google image search for "Mohammed Hagi Fiz" reveals the answer to this puzzle. Democrats aren't indifferent, they're just confused.
Some Democrats went directly to page 3 of Google image results for Mohammed Hagi Fiz, and discovered that Mr. Fiz is actually Mike Tyson!
It's hard to summon up much righteous indignation about Guantanamo if you think it's full of ear-biting ex-boxers!
Democrats who skipped directly to page 4 of the image results learned that Mohammed Hagi Fiz looks a lot like Mickey Mantle.
Anyone who thinks the United States is torturing Hall-of-Fame centerfielders in Guantanamo is obviously insane, so why worry?
Happiest of all were the few Democrats who followed Google's suggestion (Did you mean Mohammed Haji Fiz?) and discovered that Mohammed Haji Fiz is just another avatar of Fidel Castro.
Fidel totally knows how to have a good time anywhere, so I guess it's okay for all of us good Democrats to forget about Guantanamo and go back to business as usual: following the polls, and fighting with each other.
