The exquisite irony is that the insanities and excesses of the Bush/neocons are destroying the elites.

Get serious, right?  George Bush is in any imaginable way "hurting" the elites? 

 

No, Bush and his neocon advisor/puppets of the Israeli lunatic fringe right wing aren't just hurting them, they've set in motion historical forces (colossally magnified by the internet) which are already the beginning of the end of the elites.

 

Look, this is straight up, not weird or wishful thinking.

 

In mathematics and philosophy there's something called reductio ad absurdum (similar to proof by contradiction in math).  The idea is that if A is the case, then B should be, let's just say, "acceptable".

And if B is off the wall nutso, then A has been reduced to absurdity.

 

Something like, if "creationism" is right, then it would be absurd for carbon dating to find bones in rocks that are millions of years old.  Of course creationists have 6th grade vocabulary pamphlet counter arguments for this, but they are snickered at even by dogs and cats. 

 

Thus, creationism implies things that are meaningless and absurd; ergo, bye bye creationism.

 

This is a rough sketch of the logic.

 

OK, how does this relate to Bush killing the elites?
