Do as we say, not as we do

These are consecutive paragraphs from a CNN story about Wesley Clark's testimony in the war crimes trial of Slobodan Milosevic.

On Monday, President Bush promised Saddam Hussein would be put on trial, saying: "We will work with the Iraqis to develop a way to try him that will stand international scrutiny.

"There needs to be a public trial and all the atrocities need to come out and justice needs to be delivered. And I'm confident it will be done in a fair way."

Details of Clark's testimony will be released Friday after the U.S. government screens out anything considered a threat to "national security."

That last part translating to "As soon as we take out anything that makes Clark look good."
