'M' is for Many times you beat me...

...'O' is for the Other times you beat me...
From Andrew Tobias:

“Why should we hear about body bags and deaths. Oh, I mean, it’s not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?” – Barbara Bush, March 18, 2003 on “Good Morning America”

This of course from the family that went golfing the day after one of their daughters died.

Gold Star to Mr. Cleese

How many Bush administration officials does it take to change a light bulb?

"... manifestly unfit to be President."

Guardian Unlimited: Has Bush lost his reason?

A senior Republican, experienced and wise in the ways of Washington, told me last Friday that he does not necessarily accept that Bush is unstable, but what is clear, he added, is that he is now manifestly unfit to be President.

This, too, is a view that is widely felt, but seldom articulated and then only in private, within the Republican as well as Democratic establishments in Washington. Either way, the choice voters make on Tuesday fortnight should be obvious: whether he is unstable or merely unfit to be President - and I would argue that they amount to much the same - he should speedily be turfed out of office.

Bush's Brain

As seen on the Internet(s)...
Lucidity. See, I have this theory that one of the neocons was infected with some sort of sentient parasite (much like in the ST:NG episode "Conspiracy" or the sand thingies in "Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan"). The rest got "recruited" along the way.
Symptoms include: doublespeak (Rice), newspeak (Rove), out-and-out lies (Cheney) and devote loyalty even in the light of open backstabbing (Powell, McCain).
So why Iraq? Um... there's... a spaceship... at the bottom of one of the oil reserves between the Tigres and Euphrates and they need to go drill for it. (There, threw in a bit for X-filers).

Too out there?
Fine. Then they're just greedy, evil bastards. Happy now?

FUUUUUU...

It's all about the body count.
Yep, spreading liberty and freedom... and bullets... and resentment.

It's all about the voter turnout.
Yep, spreading liberty and freedom... and bull-- oh wait, that was Iraq.
