Children are our future

Torture is like, so, not cool:

President Bush was presented with a letter Monday signed by 50 high school seniors in the Presidential Scholars program urging a halt to "violations of the human rights" of terror suspects held by the United States. [...]

"The president enjoyed a visit with the students, accepted the letter and upon reading it let the student know that the United States does not torture and that we value human rights," deputy press secretary Dana Perino said.

After the ceremonies the high school seniors enjoyed an afternoon by the White House pool as they breathlessly awaited the arrival of Dick Cheney who carried news of their upcoming, all expense paid trip, to the sunny isle resort of Guantánamo Bay.
