"I am authorised to say the action we are now aborting may well bring the war within measurable distance of its end."

Can't remember if this is a line from Orwell's 'Nineteen Eighty-Four', although it's definitely in the Eurythmics' 1984 soundtrack album for the movie '1984', based on Orwell's novel 'Nineteen Eighty-Four', entitled '1984'.

Anyhoo, isn't this what they've been saying to us for the last three years? Can't you imagine SnowJob saying it tomorrow?

Ehh... in case you couldn't tell, this is a drunken post.

"Leonard - always get a receipt."

Sleep tight, y'all...
