At least we can rest assured that al Sadr and the other Shia leaders won’t lift a finger against us when we attack their co-religionists in Iran.
Right?
Right?

Exactly. It amazes me (not really) that the MSM never questions Dear Leader on the logic of attacking one Shi’a country using another majority Shi’a country as a base. Maybe we should just invade Syria (sunni) and use that as a base? Or maybe Turkey? India? Argentina? Besides, this war is getting boring on my teevee. I keep turning the channell and it’s the same old thing. Boooooring. Somebody pass the cheetos.

When asked how that assessment comports with recent polls that show about two-thirds of Americans say the fight in Iraq is not worth it, Cheney replied, “So?”

Imagine the vitriol and hot air that would issue forth from the liberal media if this had been Al Gore as Veep - the ho-hum treatment of such a callous and idiotic statement makes me sick.

Right?

Exactly! They’ll cheer us on, and send an unending rain of mortar shells into the Green Zone as a token of their support.

It’ll be swell!

Meanwhile Cheney’s BFF King Abdullah will watch the value of his oil skyrocket - that couldn’t possibly have anything to do with Bushco beating the Iran War drum, could it?

Obviously he’s under quite a bit of pressure from Dick Cheney to get a whole bunch more American soldiers killed

Screw the threat of Iranian nukes, we are faced with the threat of a Democrat in the White House, and increased Democratic majorities in Congress.

Drastic times require drastic measures.

Buh… but I thought that the point was to liberate the Iraqi people and give them the gifts of Democracy…
… which allows the people to decide what their government does! And isn’t it another word for elections, that “polls” thing that he disdains? So aren’t “polls” central to democratic rule?

Dick Cheney makes me so confused.

No that’s not right. The word is “angry”. Or maybe “outraged”.

I have to say, comparing Bush to Ralph Wiggum is patently unfair.

You owe the entire Wiggum family an apology.

Last night on the Newshour, Bobo declared, in connection with the fifth anniversary of the catastrophic victory, that there is in the land an unmet thirst (WTF?) for public service.

Tagg?

Bullshit, you guys just don’t get teh awesome strategists we have: for five years, they’ve been diligently keeping back the crack suicide squad of young republicans for just this occasion.

That’s right, you limp liberals: it only looks like we’re not winning so much in Iraq because we’ve sent mediocre run-of-the-mill troops so far; the real, ruthless killers like Ben Shapiro and Domenech have been patiently waiting for their chance to shine. Now, before November, it’s off to Teheran under the command of Dinesh “Leopard Print” D’Souza and Hugh “Man Boobs” Hewitt to show Amnedidntknowhathithim how a real war is conducted.

Or something like that, anyway… Ah, but I do love the smell of wingnuts in the morning.

Fucking pigs. They’re making Easter 1916 look like a goddam walk in the park.
