Barry, My Liege :
It is good that you have publicly renounced the participation of the United States of America in torturing prisoners.
Here's why :
1. Torture does not work - we get better intelligence from traditional sources.
2. The people who say torturing prisoners provides useful information are LYING.
Proof is offered by a systematic study of the effects of torture here : http://detaineetaskforce.org/report/
The report is written by the Constitution Project's Task Force.
People undergoing torure will say anything to stop the pain ; therefore any information provided from torture is probably false.
3. It is illegal and against our values as Americans.
4. It places our servicemen and women at greater risk of torture.
5. Torture damages the National Security of the United States of America.

Terrorists in Boston
Barry, My Liege :
It is apparent that some terrorists have set off a bomb in the Boston Marathon.
Now is the time to be strong and react in a civilized manner.
This is a police issue and NOT a military issue.
Please, My Liege, do not send drones or the National Guard.
If you do we will look like idiots.
Let the police handle it - the perps will be found and tried.

UPDATE 7.1 : Which Cities Flood in 50 Years?
Barry My Liege :
It is a sobering thing to see satellite photos of coastal areas showing which houses, airports and parks will be flooded by 2030 or 2040.
Here is the link :

UPDATE 4.22.13: It appears that the above link which enabled viewing of specific coastal locations that would be flooded has been disabled. That is a great disappointment and we would hope for an explanation or a restoration of the feature.
UPDATE 7.1.13 - Here's a study about which cities will flood : http://www.upworthy.com/which-cities-will-be-completely-underwater-in-less-than-100-years?c=bl3
We pray you remember that it is not a game.
Your faithful servant,
