A witness in a case just said the following on Law & Order (and I don't think it was supposed to be funny):
"I'd put panties on every head in Abu Ghraib prison if I thought it would save one innocent life."
As my wife said, "Why would it?"
If you're a television writer, and you're writing the military officer's "ends justify the means" quote on torture, you're really going with panties on the head? That's how you dramatize the argument? That's your best move? Well played, television writer. Well played.
