What's in that bottle, dude?

This plot is further evidence that the terrorists we face are sophisticated, and constantly changing their tactics... We're dealing with a new enemy that uses new means of attack and new methods to communicate.
~From the President's Radio Address, August 12, 2006

Color me gullible

• Osama is where?

• Iraq is still under seige in spite of having killed Al Quaeda's #2

• There has been a significant increase in terror incidents, terrorist related deaths, etc. since the "War on Terror" began.

Is George Bush the "War" President or the "Panic President?"
(OK, that's a rhetorical question)
How dumb are we, anyway?

Cheney really is nuts

Yesterday, Cheney bashed those who voted for Democrat Ned Lamont in the Connecticut Senate primary, claiming that these votes would encourage "al Qaeda types" to think that "they can break the will of the American people."

She's baaaaak

Kiss of death

Connecticut voters bitch slapped Joe Lieberman last week when they voted for anti-war preppie Ned Lamont in the state Senate primary.

The super santimonious Senator Lieberman now threatens to run as an Independent, but meanwhile the Lamont victory was particularly sweet because voters got to express their feelings about George Bush, once again...and this time the Republicans didn't bother to jerry rig the polls.

There ain't no reins on this one.

Holy Katz!

It's no wonder we're winning the War on Terror. The US military/industrial complex is just a boiling cauldron of great ideas. Remember the “Love Bomb”? No, not the recruiting technique used by the Unification Church. This “love bomb” was a plan hatched back in '94 at the Air Force Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, a chemical aphrodisiac designed to incite widespread homosexual behavior among enemy troops.

The thinking (and is this midwestern or what?) was that rampant gay lust would be fatal to morale. Silly, silly men! Haven't they heard about male bonding?? They already fight for each other.


Another bright idea, rumored to have been around since WWII, was the “”Who Me?“ bomb which simulated flatulence among enemy ranks. Clearly this was a plan ahead of its time, a plan that required a president with the gravitas to implement it. Meanwhile, researchers decided that too many people around the (third) world do not find fecal odor offensive because they are so acccustomed to it.

Hmm. We all know who think theirs don't stink.

Gee-had!

There's only one way to put an end to terror in the middle East.
Hang on Condi!

Antecedents

Is that a WMD you're holding behind your back? Rummy and Saddam in '83.

A bigger boom for your bang

An Army of old people? Why not.

This is just the kind of nifty idea the Bushies and their brain trust would come up with to sell the war to aging boomers. (Scroll down to "Be as old as you can be.")

She walks the line

Rest easy tonight, fellow citizens, because my dear friend, Scooter, has assumed responsbility for patrolling our Southwestern borders.

Scooter, who is based in Albuquerque, has proven herself worthy of the post. Watch her at work.
It's a fine line, and she walks it.

Bad for the Jews, part deux

"While Pastor John Hagee, a popular televangelist who leads the 18,000-member Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas...has long prophesized about the end times, he ratcheted up his rhetoric this year with the publication of his book, 'Jerusalem Countdown,' in which he argues that a confrontation with Iran is a necessary precondition for Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ. In the best-selling book, Hagee insists that the United States must join Israel in a preemptive military strike against Iran to fulfill God's plan for both Israel and the West."

Bad for the Jews

"...Long after Bush is gone from office, Israel will be threatened by a new generation of enemies whose political memory was decisively shaped by these horrible images emerging from Lebanon. At that point, Israelis attempting to make peace with those they must coexist with will recognize that with friends such as Bush and his neoconservative mentors, they would not lack for enemies."
