I was reminded of this phrase from The Princess Bride just now, as I read this infuriating article from Fox News. (Well, what did I expect?!?!)
If the war is over, how can this be "one of the major battles of the first war of the 21st century"? And does he really expect us to believe this drivel? "They want to fight us there because they can't stand the thought of a free society in the Middle East. They hate freedom. They hate the thought of a democracy emerging."
As I said, I'm not sure Bush has an understanding of the word "freedom". The Iraqis did not know freedom under Saddam Hussein, that's for sure. But they don't have freedom now either. It's like saying, "Sure, I'm holding your arms down, but at least I'm not punching you in the stomach!"
Mr. President? Go to your computer and read Riverbend's and Salam Pax's blogs. You do know how to use a computer, right?

I think, by the way, that their new slogan ought to be "We distort. You comply." What are they gonna do about it? It's parody! It's protected! Go ahead and sue me! Nyah nyah! (I'm so mature.)
