Yay! I love it when there's good news in war time.

Saddam's sons, apparently, are dead.

This makes me very, very happy.

But it is a sort of horseshoes-n-hand grenades scenario. We want daddy, and that other fucker from Afghanistan whose name I'm having trouble recalling in the year and a half since he "disappeared." And we don't have daddy . . . or that other fucker from Afghanistan whose name I'm having trouble recalling.

I'm kidding, of course, but it speaks to the point that the less Osama or Usama or Youmamma or Whateverthefuckhelikestospellitas stays in the news, the less it matters if we have him.

And I still think that's important; the images of their respective corpses on the world news.

But Saddam's sons were murderous brats, so the world is a better place today.

I suddenly have The Who running through my head . . . "I was born with a bloody spoon in myyyyyyyyyyyy mouth . . . . "

Mas Bush

Just heard our 'elected' leader talking about what's what in Iraq.

Sounds like the same fuckin' line I've heard from him for the last two years, certain locales and names switched up where appropriate.

I really don't like that man.

You know what I hate more than the real potential for his re-election?

The Democrat's roster of totally weak shit.

I remember seeing Bush and all the Republican nominees getting ready at a debate before the primaries many moons ago. That was a pathetic bunch with the likes of Alan Keyes, Gary Rat (I forget his last name), and Teve Torbes. The Democrat roster looks as silly coming up on this next election.

Vote 3rd party, people, it's time for us to make a statement. Don't let the two-party system have its way with us again in 2k4. Revolution begins in the streets.

Richard Engel, an MSNBC correspondent, just described the photos of Saddam's dead children as "particularly gruesome."

Justice is a harsh mistress.

And since I now have to be so literal and careful with everything I put out online because so few of you have a developed sense of irony, let me say that this "war" of ours against Iraq is not what I mean by justice. But in that those Saddamistic fuckers are dead and they can no longer torture, maim, mutilate or rape another person for their own amusement . . . the children of the rich and powerful grow bored easily -- trust me, I know (Robert Chambers, any one?).
