Is Franz Kafka writing our history? |

Just look at the last few years: - The most popular President in the last 30 years gets impeached. - The guy installed as Prez is the guy who LOST the election. - This "uniter" institutes the most divisive domestic & foreign policies ever. - People who exercises their freedom of speech are corralled and kept away from the object of their protest. - American conservatives talk openly about putting their political opponents on concentration camps. - And today, the most respected news organization in the world - the BBC - has apologized for telling the truth about WMDs in Iraq.

7. Eisenhower was a chimp? Or do you mean JFK? |
|
Kennedy was, from what I read, probably more of a bonobo.

6. When Dick Cheney woke up that morning he discovered he was a bug |
|
with a rotten apple embedded in his ass and a way of scurrying about the room that made his wife Lynn scream and shoo him away with her broom.
