Earth Calling Captain Fantasy
I watched the imbecile they call “president” deliver Karl Rove and Dick Cheney's handjob to the nation this morning.
It’s time for the straightjacket, friends.
This man actually believes that the Middle East can be fire-bombed into a Western-style democracy, which will be willingly and effectively defended by American-trained Iraqi Keystone Cops once we “leave.”
This disastrous war and occupation is pouring gasoline on the flames of Islamic militancy, and this lunatic believes that “victory” is within our grasp.
This is a child playing Nintendo.
We’re sinking deeper into this morass, and there is no end in sight.
How can this be happening?
Where is the press?
Where is congress?
Where are the men in the white coats?
“Stay the Course” is not a program for victory. It is a recipe for the greatest foreign policy disaster in U.S. history.
Christ, do these people have any concept of military strategy, of history, of reality?
Withdraw. Impeach. Convict.
Now.
