I would love to be sworn into office with my hand on a Mad Magazine. That would be so funny.

I've been without TV, radio and computer for the bulk of the last week. My knowledge that something new happened this morning came in the form of 3 separate people (unknown to one another) saying "Can the President look any dumber?"

I'm not seeing anything at CNN. What did Bush do to look stupid?

Not Afraid · 12-07-2006, 03:51 PM

These similar comments were all in response to the Iraq report. Not having read it, I'm not quite sure how he looks so dumb from my own POV.

Ah. When you said "something new happened this morning" I thought you meant that something new had happened this morning.

Not Afraid · 12-07-2006, 04:17 PM

Sorry, I assumed the Iraq Report was released today. I'm in the blissful dark at the moment.

The Report was issued yesterday, and I think it makes Baker and Hamilton look rather dumb that it took them 9 months to come up with that pablum.

You can gestate a frelling human being in that time, and the best they could do was "Iraq will be better when we start doing things better. We can take our sweet time about it, too."

Ugh. You know what ticks me off the most? The dingus rabbi demanding a menorah be put up. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I have no need to for Hanukkah to be turned into some sort of surrogate Jewmas. I don't need the Supreme Court declaring the Hanukkiah/Menorah to be a secular symbol just because the Christmas tree is. Blargh.

Yeah, my first thought was 'stupid rabbi.' Shut the fvck up. We don't want equal time with Xmas. Why don't you just put up a fvcking billboard that says We Killed Christ and His Christmas Trees, Too!

As of tonight they're putting the trees back. Once again, Seattle is proud to make the national wire.
