petraeus

i'm sure that i'm not the only one who noticed that Petraeus rhymes with betray us. what an unfortunate name, like an adult version of Nerdlinger or something. the gradeschool jibe is way too obvious.

apparently the united states senate has nothing better to do than "condemn" some stupid newspaper ad. news to senate: you're just giving them free advertising. free speech is all well and good when it protects campaign donations, but when it comes to expressing the very real feeling that everything the current administration says is a lie, that's going too far?

it's like when politicians say that we should allow the market to correct itself you know it's correcting itself right into their pockets. they'll only say that we should allow it to correct itself when it seems to be correcting in a way that benefits them. if it's not correcting correctly, all bets are off - it's time to pass a law.

by the way, this still drives me crazy. of all the things he's done, this is the one thing that i can never forgive.
