Coffee Talk
Are you sitting in your circles? Good. Our Coffee Talk Subjects shall commence.1. Saddam's trial is underway, and in the grand scheme of deposed dictators everywhere, he is all denials, hot air, and petulant temper tantrums. I mean, defending the big plastic wood chipper isn't easy, so the Dictator's Manual says to deny, blowhard, and throw hissy fits, no matter how disgraceful. Today, Saddam vowed not to return to the court and told the judge to "Go to Hell!" Charming. Perhaps that is a valid Iraqi Legal defense, I'm not sure. In any event, Saddam saw fit to level some charges of his own that I just laughed and laughed about:
NBC News reported that he also complained that he had been wearing the same
shirt and underwear for three days and deprived of shower and exercise
facilities. "This is terrorism," he said.
Who knew that teenage boys and young college men the world over were terrorizing themselves? Dirty panties = Terrorism? Riiiiight. If this is the new yardstick by which evil acts are measured, that plastic shredder is going to mean a brand new level of hell for Saddam and his henchmen.
2. Howard Dean, Idiot-in-Charge at the DNC, is saying that there is no way the US can win in Iraq and that the idea that we are going to win is "just plain wrong." He's beating that old Iraq=Vietnam drum again. He's been sipping Kool-Aid from Cindy Sheehan's sports bottle again. h/t: Drudge.
3. John Kerry apparently is up to his old antics again. Now he's calling American Soldiers terrorists. But, not to worry boys, he still supports you when it is politically correct to do so. What a fucking hack. h/t: Drudge.
4. More here on those secret CIA prisons for terrorist high value targets. What a tempest in a teapot.
