Twisted, But What Else Is New?
While we eagerly await Karl Rove's October Surprise, we might as well have a little fun.
Bush's approval ratings are up again given falling gas prices (a highly suspicious coincidence) and relentless 9/11 flame fanning -- simultaneously making the idiot voter overly complaisant and scaring the shit out of him/her, thus encouraging counterproductive behaviors on everyone's part. As idiot voter is once again gassing up his speedboat and his SUV, Karl, the evil strategist, is planning new ways to strike terror in our hearts.
Robert Kuttner reasons that war with Iran is not a option. It isn't an option for an administration that is trying to run a democracy, but that's not what we seem to have here. Personally, I'm rooting for a military coup. Maybe I should send that suggestion to John Murtha and he'll pass it along.
Photo note: The flag, all wrapped up around a pole that's sticking out straight, simply begging for a Freudian interpretation -- mmm..mmm and all those triangles too.
Addendum: In case your Sunday newspaper has not yet arrived and you have a little extra time
