In further developments, the US State Department has reclassified Rationality as a 'Pariah state of mind'.
Incidentally, have you read VD Hanson's latest exercise in Thucydidean sentence structure? It serves as an object lesson of why you shouldn't blog straight after losing an argument with your teenage daughter. The whole tirade is sodden with hard-done-by self-pity about how the West is in the wrong in Iraq no matter what we say, and no-one appreciates us, and damn those Iraqi civilians for forcing our our troops to kill them and then come home with PTSD.
You can tell that the mother always takes the daughter's side.
Spot on. I only wish I could find away to relay the echoing resound of all the rapberries being blown across the United States when he made his televised address last week. Bush is so far past winning people back around that he could offer horny sailors a go on the twins and his missus and they'd still not believe or support him.
Most of my Septic colleagues and neighbours treat these White House speeches like bin Laden videos- understanding that they are full of secret dog whistle messages to their core support while seemingly only hoping to taunt the vast majority who see them.
The worst thing Bush et al are doing right now is running ads of wounded marines who insist that if they only still had two legs or both arms they'd go back to that there Eye-Rack and heroically fight al Qadea by machine-gunning civilians in Haditha. Its like watching a curious hybrid of the black knght from The Holy Grail and Mickey Knox from Natural Born Killers asking to be let out to play.
(PS: I see tourists are flocking to Minnapolis Airport to photograph Larry Craig's stall. Surely you can do something with that, eh?)
hahahaha - fantastic.
I see that General Petraeus is on his way to London to explain why Britain must remain committed to this godawful clusterfuck.
Boy, to be a fly on the wall during that meeting...
