We live lives of laughter and forgetting, yet all the while someone is taking notes, taking names, transcribing calls, sending those denounced to a shadowy systems of torture cells via procedures beyond, above, or outside the law, outside morality, all in the name of sacred things.  Collaborator? Be careful how you use that term, my fellow Americans. We all have our patriotic duties.
