		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;If you give him credit for the Iran/Iraq war, he crosses the 1MD threshold…&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Good point, Mikey. I&#039;ve been selling Saddam short. Still, you have to give Dubya credit for being the first mass murderer of the 3rd millenium CE to go over 1 Megadeath (though somebody in Darfur is giving him a run for his money).</description>

		<description>Reminds me of an old Daumier cartoon.

Doctor, leaving patient&#039;s apartment after scheduling serious surgery, looks worried. Patient is touched by doctor&#039;s concern.

Doctor says 

&quot;I&#039;m not worried about you; we&#039;ll put you to sleep through it.
I&#039;m worried about me, because it only works one time in a hundred!&quot;


I used to read the International Herald Tribune regularly, and page two had regular columns by Roger Cohen &quot;Globalist&quot; I could have gotten more useful opinion from Pravda, like Lysenko&#039;s Farm Report. Week in and week out, every column boiled down to &quot;hey Old Europe, stop hating on George Bush.&quot;

I thought the Bush-worship couldn&#039;t get any worse, until the IHT started featuring Elisabeth Bumiller&#039;s White House blowjobs. That didn&#039;t last too long. I think a lot of readers got tired of the first few pages sticking together.

We&#039;re still stuck with Friedman. And the young fart Jeff Jacoby of the Boston Globe.</description>

		<description>Doctor:  Well, I understand that you&#039;ve had a really bad, really uncomfortable case of diarrhea for a while.  But if you&#039;ll let me chop off your left leg above the knee without anesthetic and inject you with this experimental new drug that induces fifty-six straight days of projectile vomiting, there&#039;s a chance you may feel better some day.

Patient:  [?!?!!!?!?interrobang]

Doctor:  Right, then.  Let&#039;s get started, shall we?</description>

		<description>The difference between the Iraqi hell of yesterday and the Iraqi hell of today is that the former was without hope ... while the latter is characterized by...well, not hope either.

Fixed.

&lt;i&gt;There needs to be a new word or phrase created for people like Cohen...“Toady” doesn’t cut it anymore. “Hypocrite” isn’t specific enough. &lt;/i&gt;

&quot;Whistleprick&quot; seems appropriate.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;-my old roomate is on it, listed as “this long-haired graduate student freako.”&lt;/i&gt;

I saw that, and I had to laugh at the website. I trust I won&#039;t be giving anything away if I give his last name, since it&#039;s on the website and easy to find via Google with the terms you gave.

The quote is &quot;Bar-On [&quot;Hard-on&quot; in Hebrew???] recently signed a one-sided petition for &quot;U.S. Jewish Solidarity with Muslim and Arab Peoples of the Middle East&quot;... which was nothing less than a full-fledged &quot;mugging&quot; of Israel!&quot;

Oh, well done chaps! You don&#039;t even know the &lt;i&gt;language&lt;/i&gt; of the nation you claim to defend. &quot;Bar&quot; is a patronymic, meaning &quot;son of&quot;, which is why there are a full fifteen names there that start with &quot;Bar&quot; something. What a bunch of illiterate, immature morons.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Question: is the post made better or worse by first line and the last word. Does calling Cohen a “pathetic excuse for a person” and a “loser” make the facts any less damning or do anything more to underscore Cohen’s poor logic? Or does such language just make it more likely that the only people this post, and blog, will convince of anything are its author and readers of their own righteousness and the “other side’s” evil motives and stupidity? And what is the point of that?&lt;/i&gt;

Answer: why don&#039;t you cram it with walnuts, ugly.</description>

		<description>See, Paul, here&#039;s the deal. 

The boogeyman tends to lose his effectiveness after you catch him, &quot;try&quot; him and execute him.  

It&#039;s like the old joke.

What time is it when you hang the boogeyman?

Time to get a new boogeyman!!

I&#039;ll be here all weak....

		<description>&lt;i&gt;To be fair, PP is generally credited with 5 megadeaths, while Bush is only at about 1.2 MD. Saddam, however, was a rank amateur as a mass murderer, possibly not even making 1 MD, despite having decades to work on it.&lt;/i&gt;

This bothered me too. I was just thinking this morning, what ever happened to the mass graves? Before the war we had Tony Blair going round claiming there were 300000 bodies in mass graves all over Iraq. After the war, in Nov of 2003, he had it up to 400000. And yet the actual details didn&#039;t look right. There were too few graves, with too few bodies and then in mid-2004, Blair admits that there were actually 5000 that we know of. 5000 bodies, not graves. And since then, has anybody said anything? WTF?</description>
