— On Assholes

Charles Taylor claims “mammoth injustice”

Namely, that he hasn’t been paid the pension that is usually due to a former president in Liberia. (see here.)  Apparently war crimes don’t change things.  Not to mention that he’s wrong about Liberian  law (according to one correspondent, the pension is due only to a former president who has “honourably retired to private life.”)  But I guess it isn’t exactly news that he’s an asshole.
