Democracy Now! Dammit-all!!

I love this. From the first headline I read about this, it seemed like Preznit Man-on-Dog and his Poodle were genning up more reasons to send troops off to achieve the ummm...unachievable? Preznit Not2Bright had the Poodle of Mass Distraction over for dinner and drinks and a good round of English Boarding School Derriere Hi-jinks and came up with this:

In a joint White House news conference three hours after Arafat was buried in the West Bank, the two leaders pledged renewed efforts to support the development of democratic institutions in the Palestinian territories and signaled that Middle East peace would be a top priority in Bush's second presidential term.
...
"We're committed to the success of these elections, and we stand ready to help," Bush said. "We look forward to working with a Palestinian leadership that is committed to fighting terror and committed to the cause of democratic reform." ...
As the two remaining synapses in his brain fired, Preznit War4TheeNotMee remembered that he's supposed to have both tuff cowboy values and the steely-eye missileman mystique, so to prove that our troops are tuffer'n their troops he tossed this in:
In U.S. dealings with Palestinian leaders, "we'll hold their feet to the fire to make sure that democracy prevails," Bush said at another point in the news conference."
And to make good and sure that the message will get through, guess who's coming to dinner in London again?
The president also said he plans to visit Europe as soon as possible after his Jan. 20 inauguration as he seeks to mend relations with allies and "deepen our trans-Atlantic ties" during his second term.
I'm guessing that this time the Queen will be off in Gstaad or something taking in a seminar on gardening or topiary or something...to make up for all the plants ruined by the last Colonial invasion.

Hey, if he goes to Paris, maybe all the Frenchmen could scrape out some toe-cheese to donate for the state dinner...I'm sure that there would be no shortage of volunteers to provide food for the mission accomplie banquet!!

it's rather amazing how concerned preznit vacationus maximus is about the fairness of elections in other lands, while voting in the land of the free is as dirty as pickles' undies. the lord works in mysterious ways.

We're going to Syria folks. The deal is to get Brit troops to take over in Iraq so we can go to Syria. I hope I'm wrong.
