These “boot camps” seemed like a good idea at first, but remember that they’re still basically a cross between summer camp and jail. And that they are populated by the most troublesome teenagers in the area. So it’s not that surprising to find that a kid got beaten to death by the guards at one. I’m actually surprised it hasn’t happened more.
At first, I thought this headline read “Bush Defends Mediocre Plan.” But that wouldn’t make sense: I haven’t known him to make any plans that good.
Secretly Ironic 
wouldn’t it be lovely if the media actually used truthful headlines like that? while it’d have been being kind (as you said, “mediocre” is still probably too good a word for him, and “plan” implies that he, well, has one), at least it’d be a little closer to the truth.
