The president's decision to use force against Iranian "agents" inside Iraq could snare innocent pilgrims, and raises the risk of open warfare.
  • Let's get together and fear all night!

    Be afraid. Be very afraid. That's the ticket. If you're really afraid of the Bush crime family it's schemes are easier to pull off.

    Or you can take a different approach. Don't be afraid. Don't even be outraged, though you can still pay attention. Just be determined and persistent. We are not powerless in this predicament. The Bush crime family is made up of weaklings, moral imbeciles who have feet of clay. When the glue that holds this band together starts to melt, the gang will turn on itself. We can help in this process.

    We of the human species, the supposedly most intelligent of creatures, the top of the food chain. What a piece of work is man! How noble in reason! How infinite in faculty! In form, in moving, how express and admirable! In action how like an angel! In apprehension how like a god! The beauty of the world! The paragon of animals!

    If we, the human species, cannot overcome this little band of sociopaths, then we don't deserve to be at the top of the food chain, and won't be for long. We'll have a lot more to be afraid of than the Bush crime family.
