(voiceover) When they came for the criminals I remained silent, because I was not a criminal. . . . And, anyway, I kind of like them in pink.

Its nice to see the usual gaggle of shallow gasbags are getting their daily laugh out of other peoples' misfortunes (keeps them from day dreaming about torture I suppose), but what the hell is Anderson doing hanging out with this bunch?

1. The evidence is clear that the clothing buyers for the prison are either color blind or weren't reading the Geranimal tags right.

2. Clean, sober, embarrassed as all heck and I really need to pee. Go ahead, shoot me now. My life is over now that a photo me in this outfit is on the internet.

3. "Is the Porta-Potty this color-coordinated too?"

4. These outfits are clearly a violation of our Constitutional rights regarding cruel and unusual punishment.

Members of Congress in the 11th step of the "Earmark No More" program. (only 8,726 more steps to go)

Sure, they are clean and sober now, but you can imagine how drunk they were when they first got into those clothes.

Scalia delivered the opinion of the court noting that both the term "cruel" and most definitely "unusual" had been met.

When asked, the border guards would only smile and say it was there professional instincts that had led them to question the illegal aliens.

Corporal, "don't ask, don't tell" is not the proper response to a question about this inaugural honor guard for Pres. Obama.

Justice is blind ... and apparently as a consequence has no fashion sense.

Supporters of the program pointed out the nation leading low recidivism rate and that contrary to predictions there had been no fatalities due to embarrassment.

Mother, Father, I'm here in the zoo.
I can't come home cause I've grown up too soon.
I got my sentence, I got my command,
They said they'd make me Major if I met all their demands.
I could be a corporal into corporal punishment,
Or the genral manager of a large establishment.
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod,
But I never thought they'd put me in the Goon Squad.
They've come to look you over and they're giving you the eye,Goon Squad.
They want you to come out to play, you'd better say goodbye.
Some grow just like their dads,
And some grow up too tall.
Some go drinking with the lads,
And some don't grow up at all.
You must find the proper place for everything you see,
But you'll never get to make a lampshade out of me.
I could join a chain of males or be the missing link,
Looking for a lucky girl to put me in the pink.
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod,
But I never thought theyd put me in the Goon Squad.
Mother, Father, I'm doing so well,
I'm making such progress now that you can hardly tell.
I fit in a little dedication with one eye on the clock,
They caught you under medication you could be in for a shock.
Thinking up the alibis that everyone's forgotten.
Just another mother's boy gone to rotten.
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod,
But I never thought they'd put me in the Goon Squad.

The powers that be,
That force us to live like we do.
Bring me to my knees,
When I see what they've done to you...
Now were back on the train,
Oh, back on the chain gang.

("No singing!?!?" made me laught the most. Here in response...)

I got a kick from champagne.
But for mere alcohol, I'd not be here at all.
So tell me, why should it be true?
That I got six months, not dry school...
