You Are Where You Are

"People are no damn good."

Bill Moyers is NOT one of them. If however, there is an Angelic Being guarding the pearly-gated community called Heaven, "Buying The War" could serve as the touchstone used to grant entrance.

The 21st Century successor to "All The President's Men", is as damning as the original. Days after it aired, newscasters and pundits; some still performing the same functions documented in the run up to the Iraq War, and congressmen with capitol R's affixed to their names, are furiously trying to avoid the obvious... without even mentioning EXHIBIT A by name.

The day before, Ann Coulter announced on Hannity & Colmes that she would just talk over the fellow guest that had interrupted her, and did so. A tactic used that very night by John McCain against Jon Stewart as McCain tried in vain, to gloss everything thing over with the new/old new/old/Noory/Bell neo-con mantra: "WE ARE WHERE WE ARE." Anyone lucky enough to see "Buying The War" now knows HOW WE GOT HERE.

Perhaps the slogan should be updated: "R-People are no damn good," or "People (R) are no damn good."

Both are redundant as of April 25, 2007.

The Long War is officially over. Here is a list* of those who DID NOT LOSE.
