2009: The U.S. Department of torment tries to implement president-elect Mitt Romney's campaign pledge that "we ought to double Guantanamo." Posthumanist architects present a proposal to double the square footage available for torture. (Man 1: Verticle expansion will turn GITMO into a gleaming cityscape of pain!) (Woman: There'll also be a Wal-mart.) But the military interprets Romney's mandate as an order to double the population of torturees. (Man 2: Sartre said hell is other people. So we'll stack up the detainees slave-boat style!) (Man 3: Duplicate nipple clamps?!) (Man 4: For Muslims 3rd and 4th areolae.) Others prefer a meta-physical GITMO doubling. Of course, there's only one way to resolve the various approaches: Torture. (Man 1: Ok, ok! Go with another approach!)
