So, in order to maintain my credibility as a patriot, do I have to offer the appropriate hosannas of how good the news is before I lapse back into my healthy skepticism? Ah, fuck that. Let's just call this "cynical Sunday".
This morning, as we listened to the press conference about the capturing of Saddam, Mrs Martial tilted her head, cocked an eyebrow, and said,
"Its been a humiliating week for Bush what with the reconstruction contracts, Halliburton profiteering, and the steel tariff smackdown.
"How convenient that the world should this weekend be treated to the graphic humiliation of Bush's enemy."
And, this afternoon as I watched some footage of Saddam, I thought to myself that if we are looking for a strong man with a mustache, well we've found one . . .
