Catch the Pigeon
Bush's Orwellian quote for the day: "the United States will find the killers, and they will learn the meaning of American justice".
That would be the American justice where we toss out all International Law, send 300,000 troops with billions of dollars of smart bombs to get you. Then we flatten everything and everyone between you and us that raises so much as a pointy stick in opposition (and some that don't) and then most likely let you escape so you're free to taunt us another day.
It all sounds like some twisted highstakes international version of Catch the Pigeon to me. If you don't believe me lets check out the cast list for Catch the Pigeon:
There's Dick Dastardly, ... who apparently grew tired of losing all those Wacky Races, was now in charge
of The Vulture Squadron, a band of airborne misfits whose mission was to Stop that Pigeon!. Well that would have to be George Bush Jnr.
It gets better: Dastardly received his orders from "The General" who was never seen but always heard barking orders to poor Dick over the phone.. So The General would be Corporate American, aka Big Oil & Co.
Then there's Zilly: ... whose nerves were so frazzled he could barely muster the courage to get into his plane, let alone fly it. That would have to be Chainey.
And of course Klunk: ... the squad's mechanic and inventor of gizmos so strange that they could almost put Rube Goldberg to shame. He also had some very strange vocal inflections. That would have to be Ashcroft, mastermind and evil doer behind Total Information Awareness and other dastardly deeds.
The only question is, who wins the medal as Mutley ... who always demanded a medal for following the dimwitted deeds of his master ???
