Caliban — i’m still curious about your take on the Waugh/Orwell (Blair) book. Do you find the connection credible, or is it just a thesis in search of absent data?

You don’t sound drunk or off meds, just venting through the anonymity of the keyboard. There’s worse personal management plans one could follow . . . “self-medicating by blog”, in the upcoming DSM V!

I’ll second that, Joe K.

I mean really, the vitriol I’ve been reading on this site the past few days. Do we need to adjust our meds?

N,
Caliban has turned from the drunk in the corner of the bar that we all put up with, into a raging alcoholic that we wish the owner would throw out and ban for awhile.

Know what’s the funniest thing about the flying nun pick? Conservative columnists went full goose loony over the idea that the Obama campaign didn’t ‘vet’ Hillary, as if that were necessary. Harry and Louise made their bogus case a couple of decades ago. Believes in universal health care. What a jerk.

Seems like McCain looked at Sarah’s tits and the campaign called that vetting, because, after all, that would get those Hillary die-hards. Ya know, cleavage. If she takes off her glasses does she become miraculously ravishing?

Did y’all know that ‘vetting’ actually means having a veterinarian check out a horse to make sure it’s up to a race? With no snowmobiles.

Is there anything more foul, Republican and Mordor-like than a Snowmobile. Well actually, Ski-Doos. Nowhere. Nohow.

How is it that anybody in good conscience supports a political party that engineered the Swiftboat crap. All's fair? Including lying your ass off in service to a weasel that bailed on the Tejas National Guard and then did the same thing to Alabama? Those are not allegations, they're facts. What is wrong with people? The current administration actually told y'all that Saddam blew up the WTC. What sort of cognitive dissonance is involved in not calling these assholes liars? I think it's fairly certain American troops committed atrocities and war crimes in VietNam. Lieutenant Calley said so, and we support our troops. Does pointing this out make you un-American? Well, no, it makes you American, if you aren't some scum-sucking Nixon toady in white bucks like Paul O'Neill. The point is just that the Republican Party lies, cheats and steals American souls if it means resorting to racism or questioning an opponent's patriotism. Why does anybody put up with this garbage? Maybe I'm naive, but I don't get it. Mass hypnosis? Facts of this matter are clear and undeniable. They lie. They malign and slander American citizens that have served the country honorably, they promote sleazy bastards that never did any such thing. Which part of this canard do voters not get? Is it about 'framing'? Sorry, I think a rational human being's reaction to the idea that 'framing' works is launching from a tall building. There isn't a human race just so we could be manipulated by so many Screwtapes. Funny, if you believe that's wrong, you believe the TV preachers and the Bushes have been lying all along, and the assholes are working for Randall Flagg. Dan Quaill made W look like a warrior. His wife made Mrs. Cheney look like a hack pornographer by writing hack PNAC spy pornography. Reagan was a sad case. Poppy bailed on his buddies. Ollie North was a whole lot more American terrorist than Johnny Taliban. Henry Kissinger murdered Allende and installed Pinochet, a butcher, a true star. If there's a country worth saving, it's worth saving from Mr. Keating Five. How does he skate on that monstrous criminality. Oh. He's a Republican.
