"Master & Servant"

Remember this old Depeche Mode tune?

There's a new game

We like to play you see

A game with added reality

You treat me like a dog

Get me down on my knees

We call it master and servant

We call it master and servant

It's a lot like life

This play between the sheets

With you on top and me underneath

Forget all about equality

Let's play master and servant

Let's play master and servant

It's a lot like life

And that's what's appealing

If you despise that throwaway feeling

From disposable fun

Then this is the one

Domination's the name of the game

In bed or in life

They're both just the same

Except in one you're fulfilled

At the end of the day

Let's play master and servant

Let's play master and servant

Let's play master and servant

Come on master and servant

.... so it appears the Peter MacKay and Condi Rice will just let bygones by bygones and "agree to disagree" over the Arar scandal. Isn't that special?

I guess that's just peachy. I mean why should the illegal US detainment of a Canadian National who is subsequently forcibly deported by the US to a third country without the knowledge of the Canadian Government and then tortured mercilessly based on faulty US intelligence by Authorities in that third Country (Syria, the most fun-loving Arab democracy of them all!) for a full year warrant any stiff diplomatic rebuke of the United States Government by the Government of Canada ?

We need to sell our beef don't 'ya know?

On top of it all, the secret conspiracy called "deep integration" continues against this sordid and disgusting backdrop.
