OUCH: The Planet of Unreality
March 21st, 2006 @ 7:45 pm

Does it feel to you like things are growing more and more surreal everyday? Well, if it does, than it’s possible you’ve been sucked into the vortex of “The Planet of Unreality.” Chances are you had no intention of going there, clearly a vast majority of American’s did not, but if you unwittingly listened to Dick Cheney on Face the Nation Sunday, or even to Bush’s press conference today, no doubt you have found yourself shaking your head and asking what planet they are on, because clearly what they are selling is not reality.

This is not good. The people running this country sound convinced that reality is whatever they say it is. And if they’ve actually strayed into the realm of genuine self-delusion — if they actually believe the fantasies they’re spinning about the bloody mess they’ve made in Iraq over the past three years — then things are even worse than I thought.
