So Cheney says: "We're going to kill four million Iraqis and shoot a dozen or so random victims in the DC suburbs."
"Why are you going to shoot a dozen or so random victims in the DC suburbs?"
And Bush says: "See, I told you nobody would care about four million Iraqis!"

Or have I messed up the story somehow? I think it's the economy and the environment and the corruption we're not supposed to care about.

Christopher Hitchins, in a review in the current Atlantic Monthly notes that Mathhew Scully, author of a new book on the suffering of animals is a former Bush speech-writer: "He left his job in the executive mansion to forward this piece of advocacy. Who can speak for the dumb? A man who has had to answer this question on behalf of the President himself is now stepping forward on behalf of the truly voiceless."

But isn't it strange that the protester at the UN, firing off shots to draw attention to North Korean tyrranies, turns out to be a postal worker?!?
