Humint Events Online: Bush Watch

Bush Watch

Once upon a time, this would have been a major scandal.

How sad that Bush is vowing to use his first veto ever to block medical progress. (Update: what an ass.)

Meanwhile, the middle east literally is in flames, and the Bush administration seems unwilling to do anything serious about it. On the other hand, I'm fairly sure if it weren't for the fact that oil prices would skyrocket and wreck the US economy, the Bush administration would happily start WWIII (or IV or whatever the fuck it supposed to be).* (Some interesting analysis of how the current hostilities fit into the big picture can be read here.)

As far as the massage incident with the female German chancellor, I'm not saying this is a big deal, but is sure is immature, and the weirdest pafrt is the zombie-like expression on Bush's face. WTF is the deal with this guy?



*FWIW, I have nothing against Israel trying to take out the hezbollah rocket launchers-- that only seems fair. But I don't think it is right for Israel to attack clearly civilian targets in Lebanon, such as the Beirut airport. The more Israel strays from bombing pure military targets, the worse they look, and the more like the Islamic extremsists they look-- I don't care "who started it".
