That can be answered with this simple graph...

I don't know who had the greater desire to go to Iraq. Either way, it looks like Blair was blackmailed into it, which had him begging for Bush to put up the muscle. Or maybe Bush (by 'Bush', I mean his staff/handlers) was doing the blackmailing. Hard to tell, but there is a story here, in addition to the phone hacking scandal, that makes the NSA thing look like just another day at the office. His whole attitude about the war is so much more understandable now. Is this what they meant by 'sex up the intelligence'? A DNA test will go a long way into settling this.

Before posting JEs and comments, for the love of all that is good in this universe, run it through notepad, or your favorite plain text editor to get rid of things that don't render.. You know, like 'smart' quotes and apostrophes. Don't make reading so painful

That's when the war in Afghanistan will be officially privatized, and Obama can safely say he brought the troops home. But the war will continue... with your money and efforts.

No, Bush Dark..

Definitely more flavorful.

Over 1400 bot posts in the journal section in 24 hours. I'm convinced they're intentionally letting this happen, but I don't know the reason yet. Maybe they're looking for an excuse to start deleting user posts and journals, as opposed to making a feeble effort to make sure there is a human behind every account. So, for now, the only way to filter out the spam is to friend people that aren't spamming.

All them A-rabs look alike to me

Eh, What else is new..

Meanwhile, Obama continues to stack the deck

O-bla-di, o-bla-da, life goes on, brah!

The "Mafia's" Ten Commandments: Reprint

1. No-one can present himself directly to another of our friends. There must be a third person to do it.

2. Never look at the wives of friends.

3. Never be seen with cops

4. Don't go to pubs and clubs.

5. Always being available for Cosa Nostra is a duty - even if your wife's about to give birth.

6. Appointments must absolutely be respected.

7. Wives must be treated with respect.

8. When asked for any information, the answer must be the truth.

9. Money cannot be appropriated if it belongs to others or to other families.

10. People who can't be part of Cosa Nostra: anyone who has a close relative in the police, anyone with a two-timing relative in the family, anyone who behaves badly and doesn't hold to moral values.

You won't find a single state that's any more liberal... or more conservative. You will never find a state with a more... oh, how would you say... "accurate" kill list, or swifter justice. Since the mob runs the world anyway, let's just eliminate (so to speak) the middleman.

The other day I greeted my goldfish, "Good morning Pinky, how's the water?" He replies, "What the hell is water?"

Let's see if my main man picks up what I'm puttin' down...

I love you truly, truly dear,
Life with its sorrow, life with its tear
Fades into dreams when I feel you are near
For I love you truly, truly dear.
Ah! Love, 'tis something to feel your kind hand
Ah! Yes, 'tis something by your side to stand;
Gone is the sorrow, gone doubt and fear,
For you love me truly, truly dear.

But little kids are hearing that crap, It's going to fuck up their soft brains a lot more than seeing Janet's titties.

What First Amendment?

Fish in a barrel...

Well being that you're a sociopath, I suspect you would be very content. You made yourself and your associates a great deal of money.

Obama and the boys are doing a great job, doncha think? Give 'em a nice, big hand...

Bush's numbers are up. And guess who's being groomed..

This high wire act really is a wondrous sight, like Homer trying to keep Pinchy alive in the same aquarium as the goldfish.

"My father is no different than any other powerful man -- any man who's responsible for other people, like a senator or president."

"You know how naive you sound...senators and presidents don't have men killed."

"Oh, who's being naive...?"

...just for an instant...
