How to Tell That Chimpie and the Chimpettes Are Desperate

Look, the mainstream media would have you believe that Chimpie is having a good week because:

Chief strategist Karl Rove did not get indicted.

Chimpie had to secretly sneak into the Green Zone in Baghdad wearing 25 lbs of body armor and a helmet

They manage to kill the umpteenth "Number Two Man" in al Qaeda.

Hardly a call for a victory dance, but spin isn't spin unless it's constant and high-speed. Is there really any good news for this gang of incompetent thugs? If it wasn't for the rosy veneer of the corporate-owned media, there would be riots going on over this shit.

Chimpy in Charge and Doin' a Heckuva Job

Do you feel safer now that 2500 GIs are dead? Was their sacrifice to George W. Bush's vision for the world worth the improved security? Oh, wait. It's not just me, apparently who thinks that (a) the "Global War on Terror" is a bullshit cover for creeping fascism, and (b) that if there really was a true war on terror, these incompetent idiots are the last group you'd want running it. Don't take my word for it, because I'm a raving lunatic. However, it's a lot harder to dismiss everyone as a moonbat who believes that the Global War on Terror is thus far a fucking failure.

Foreign Policy, a journal that is hardly some partisan rant fest, did the study of 100 foreign policy wonks from all sides. The good news:

A bipartisan majority (84 percent) of the index’s experts say the United States is not winning the war on terror. Eighty-six percent of the index’s experts see a world today that is growing more dangerous for Americans. Overall, they agree that the U.S. government is falling short in its homeland security efforts. More than 8 in 10 expect an attack on the scale of 9/11 within a decade.

The top threat, in their view, is loose nukes. The most startling thing from this report is that 71 out of 94 CONSERVATIVES disagree with Chimpie that we're winning the war on terror.

Imagine that--old Olaf agrees with 75 percent of conservative wonks. Methinks that if the news media would get off its kneepads and take Dick Cheney's cock out it its mouth long enough to dictate some objective reporting, the entire political climate would undergo seismic change. But, you see, there's an election in November, and if the Congress shifts radically, all those party invitations, golf gaggles, and hooker-serviced poker parties at the Watergate courtesy of the Republican majority are going to end. I mean, who'd fuck a Washington Times or Fox "News" journalist unless it was for money, right? A lot of money.
