If he does, he had better bring his entire family and seek asylum. Because al-Sadr has said he should not go.

To me, that says if he does go, he will not be safe even in the Green Zone. Because the so-called Iraqi army and the so-called Baghdad police are mostly all loyal to al-Sadr.

I think he will not go. After all, soon the airport in Baghdad will be pretty much closed all the time, due to ’security reasons.’ If I were al-Maliki, I would grab at this excuse not to meet with Dubya. Hell, I’m not al-Maliki, and I would grab at any excuse not to meet Dubya.

How stupid is the Preznit going to look then? What if they gave a summit and nobody came?

Instead, the entire gang turns out to be 9-year-olds without the same level of awareness as your average third-grade class. They’re just a stupid and twice as venal as Dubya.

And the whole time we have been subjected to a right-wing cheering section doing a reprise of Fredo in Godfather II–”I’m smart, Mikey!!! Not dumb like Pop says. I’m SMART!!“

Pisses me off. If they aren’t going to answer the questions in an interview, the least the interviewer could do is say “excuse me sir, but that is not an answer to the question that I asked. Do you refuse to answer my question? If so, why?” It’s not that bloody hard…

It’s been years since my jaw dropped in response to Dubya’s stupidity. It’s just a given and it no longer surprises or shocks. What continues to appall me, however, is how blithely the “assembled media of the entire world” allows him to continue “uttering such dimwitted nonsense” without calling him on it. Or pointing out its pure ridiculousness. Or even asking a fucking question. That’s what gets me.

That’s right George. One thing Iraqis really hate is foriegners fomenting chaos, waging war, and trying to run things in their country.

You know, every now and then I forget just how stupid this guy is.

May I direct all readers to this delicious entray of conservative apostasy, with a little side order of disgust on top. Really, the piece could have been written by Digby or Atrios but no it is from some old blue blood conservative and former trustee of National Review Austin W Bramwell. Kinda makes you wonder how polite the old vampire William F Buckley was in his resignation request…

A little sampling to wet your appetite.

“But “conservatismâ€? has no mystical essence. Rather than a magisterium handed down from apostolic times, it is an ideology whose contours are largely arbitrary and accidental. By ideology, I mean precisely what Orwell depicted in 1984. I do not mean, of course, that conservatism is totalitarian. Taken as prophecy, 1984 has little merit. Taken as a description of the world we actually live in, however, it is indispensable. 1984 reveals not the horrors of the future but the quotidian realities of ideology in mass democracy. Conservatism exemplifies them all.

Oh yeah. He then goes on in 4 points to show how modern American conservatism has become a mindless power seeking ideology.

Enjoy.

Professional moron Dennis Prager argues that Congressman Ellis may not take the oath on the Koran, because America decides what Congressmen use to take the oath, and that’s the Bible.

Apparently the Constitution hates American. Attention submoronic dipshit: Article VI, motherfucker. Do you read it?

“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.”

Even small children understand that this is not true. Yet, here is our president speakng before the assembled media of the entire world, uttering such dimwitted nonsense.

Is there any other possible conclusion than that our president is too stupid to hold his office? I have never been so embarassed to be an American, and I hang my head in shame that, out of 193 recognized countries on Planet Earth, we have the dumbest leader of them all.

Now there’s a mental image I didn’t particularly need this morning.

Extremists. Defeating Emergences since 1095.

Oh sure, there have been a few victorious emergences since the first crusade, but sometimes shit emerges before we have a chance to defeat it. That whole french revolution thing really flummoxed us. But know this: If you’re thinking about emerging, we’re watching, and the chances of you emerging victoriously are sadly, low.

Mind you, we have no problem with “emergencies”. Emergencies may proceed when necessary without our defeating them. Just dial 9/11.

If you say it enough times, “emerging” is a funny word…

They’re off on a bender with the Preview Button.

According to sophomore George Bush, attempts by uncool kids to sit at the cool kids’ table during second lunch period are unacceptable. “They’re, like, rude and they smell funny,” said Bush, “Their type just destroys our school spirit.”

Bush then playfully tossed a handful of chicken ala king at his friend Turdblossom, made several loud farting noises, and went out to the parking lot for a quick snort before fifth period. “Leave the trays,” he said to his friends. “Somebody else will take care of them.”

Yes, that was 3 weeks ago. Now, the terraists are fomenting this ‘new phase’ of the insurgency to show their support for their/our new leaders in Congress.

Holy Fuck!
Holy Fuck!
Holy Fuck!
