Assclowns of the Week #53: “Junior, This is an Intervention” Edition.


Everyone who voted for this asshat in 2004, after we knew, essentially, everything we now know, should be horse-whipped!

Welcome to Pottersville: Assclowns of the Week #53: “Junior, This is an Intervention” Edition.:

'ISG' might as well stand for “Intervention of Sane Grownups” because the Iraq Study Group’s report, while a watered-down list of seventy-nine recommendations made by five Democrats and five Republicans who never protested or opposed the war, was nonetheless rooted in some much-needed, if belated and redundant, pragmatism.

It’s frightening enough when our bloated government can’t cull together enough qualified people to fight a ragtag band of insurgents in Iraq and have to outsource for solutions out of this mess. It’s even more frightening when, as I’d expected, James Baker’s august group worked for months to formulate initiatives that would be largely blown off by a Chief Executive who still thinks that victory is not only at hand but belongs to us.

Funny. I thought the only beneficiaries of victory would be the Iraqis themselves. You know, the “No more WMD’s in your back yard, no more terrorists hiding in your falafel, no more Saddam killing you in droves” brand of selfless foreign policy?
