What a weird world he lives in!

(I can’t claim this originally, but I like it)

“Muad’dib! Muad’dib!”

“The Golden Crescent in Afghanistan is a huge success as China owns American dollars and we own their workers drug addiction!!!”

“Traa laa laa Boom Deee Ayy!”

“The hills are alive…..”

It’s hard to know what’s more insulting: that fact that they keep lying or the idea that they think we might believe them.

Rumsfeld has previously said he plans to open a
research foundation of his own to teach about
“U.S. engagement in world affairs.”

Those who cannot do, teach.

Neither the Afghans nor the Iraqis asked for US intervention. This is not to say that either country enjoyed the government in place before the US invaded. However, one must really question whether the people of Iraq believe that results of our occupation were worth it. Twenty per cent of the population displaced, health, services, unemployment, oil production, poverty and hunger are all in worse shape than prior to the invasion. The violence at highs and on a daily basis that must make daily life just as terrifying as when Sadam was in power. The Afghan people fare much better but face a declining situation and were never provided the aid and assistance as promised.

This seems to be the way of the Republicans. Their motto: WE WILL PLACE YOU IN A GRAVE POSITION. HOWEVER, ITS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO GET OUT OF IT.

A tactic which has recently been recognized as being bipartisan. The dems are busy grudgingly agreeing the military surge is working but that the political situation isnt acceptable. A few months ago we heard them say that the political arena cant move forward because the military front was stagnant.

Even Jason Elam couldnt hit that shifting target.

Aaaaahhhhhh, I remember fondly the halcyon days of Taliban rule when the opium crop was kept at a minimum.

Um, except for that Osama guy we were looking for in the first place…

Well, this administration can’t really be faulted for failing to locate Osama…after all, judging from his video appearances, the guy changes appearance more often than Mystique, and his apparently miraculous recovery from terminal renal failure implies a healing factor equivalent to Wolverine’s.

It’s not surprising that the administration hasn’t been able to capture a high-level mutant like this…

This may be the only thing I’ve ever agreed with Rummy on. Sure, Bush isn’t gone yet, but the anticipation is overwhelming.

Heh. That explains it all.

Afghanistan, the surge in Iraq, the reconstruction of New Orleans, and the hunt for Osama Bin Laden -they’re all big success stories.

It all makes sense now.

“Heeeeeeee, Macarena!!!”
