A Portrait of Bush as a Victim of His Own Certitude

"And there’s the president and Karl Rove, his chief political adviser, trading fart jokes."

Bush and Rove have "farted in the general direction" of the rest of America. We are dying from the fumes at this point. And while I appreciate longtime "shadow government" operative Bob Woodward's attempt at administering "Beano" to them (particularly after he lavished approval on behalf of the Shadow in his previous two books), I think it's way too late.

They're going to keep "ripping" farts until it is "R.I.P." for the U.S.A. The "peace of the grave" is the only kind of peace any American will ever experience from now on. We have lost control of our own government and "we" will be at war with most of the rest of the world for the next 100 years or as long as it takes to defeat "us" (whichever comes first).
