Colbert shoots fish in a barrel in this Tivo skit. Cheney lied... the Titanic sank, the sun set in the West...

This is a good time to read up on the latest study showing that Bush supporters are more likely to be mentally ill...

Digg!

... so it IS like WW2... but it ISN'T like WW2.

Much like Cheney saying in the 90s that going into Iraq would lead to a quagmire... and we all know what term they have tried to keep at bay as much as it dogs them.... quagmire.

More lies of convenience. No surprise.

They're liars... its what they do.

And I thought 1984 was supposed to be a novel, not a how-to guide.

At this moment, for example, in 1984 (if it was 1984), Oceania was at war with Eurasia and in alliance with Eastasia. In no public or private utterance was it ever admitted that the three powers had at any time been grouped along different lines. Actually, as Winston well knew, it was only four years since Oceania had been at war with Eastasia and in alliance with Eurasia. But that was merely a piece of furtive knowledge which he happened to possess because his memory was not satisfactorily under control. Officially the change of partners had never happened. Oceania was at war with Eurasia: therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.
