We're talking people who can't figure out infrastructure, who can't agree on water purification or irrigation. These are guys who function on emotional impulse, not reasonable thought ? they'd rather dance in the street than do an honest day's work.

Like Ralph Kramden, these schmoes make big plans filled with falafel in the sky, but when it comes down to Earth it's just bird crap. Outside of destroying a building or ship here and there, they haven't accomplished one damn constructive thing ? and the only thing any of them know how to make is a bomb.

That's not a real productive skill.

After they kill all the Americans, Europeans, and Asians who's going to design and build the computers, cars, televisions, appliances, and other handy-dandy infidel devices these putzes enjoy so much? Don't forget cell-phones ? the jihadists do love their cell-phones!

These guys can't even repair the devices that exist now!

The Islamic radicals can't possibly kill all 300,000,000 Americans, all the Canadians, Mexicans, everyone on Planet Earth who doesn't believe in Allah as do all Muslims.

During the speech of Sept. 5 the phrase "September 11" or "Nine-Eleven" was used in 13 applications; the word "terror" or that as its root passed George W. Bush's lips 70 times. There were also so many repetitions of the words "attacks," "enemy," and "extremists" that their very use became stultifying.

On Sept. 6, in the East Room, King George presented part three in his latest campaign of fear, "President Discusses Creation of Military Commissions to Try Suspected Terrorists."

I haven't quite been able to discern of whom the audience was made up. No doubt since the event was staged within our White House the guests were not typical, average Americans.

Fearless Leader kept going on and on about something he referred to as "this program," yet even with the transcript sitting right in front of me I have no idea what he was talking about. He spent a good chunk of the speech telling us nothing, how information from one al Qaeda operative led to another led to another, etc.

I suppose George just figured out that's how this interrogation thing works.

He went on about how one particular higher-ranking al Qaeda character was persuaded to give up a slew of his cohorts.

But, the King assured us thusly ? "I want to be absolutely clear with our people, and the world: The United States does not torture. It's against our laws, and it's against our values. I have not authorized it ? and I will not authorize it."

Yep. And pigs have sprouted wings, so now they can fly.

King George expressed his displeasure with the Supremes for daring to adhere to the Constitution, requiring that military tribunals for terror suspects be explicitly authorized by Congress. In an effort to complete an end-run around the Supremes' decision, His Excellency has insisted that Congress rush through the 85-page legislation he wants passed during the upcoming three-week session. This would allow any prisoners to be persecuted to the fullest extent of the Regime's satisfaction.

George has also found it "unacceptable" that the Supremes apply Common Article Three of the Geneva Conventions to terror suspects. These are the provisions that prohibit "outrages upon personal dignity" and "humiliating and degrading treatment." It seems to me these are the same things the senior ranking people at Abu Graib got away with while those poor lower grade reservists wound up going to prison.
