Edit: Another squirrel attack! Actually I think it was a chipmunk this time. What the heck!

Although I don't want to be political on here, and I only get uncomfortable when I *think* too long about politics, today will be an exception. Please hit "next blog" up top if, like me, you mind.

Bill Maher simplifies it for us:

"Bush decides that he can detain someone *forever.*
Bush decides what is cruel and unusual punishment.
Bush decides who violated the Geneva Convention and who didn't."

Every day it feels more and more preposterous and friggin scary to maintain a US citizenship.

And if you think that's crazy: Reagan's brain alive in.... who's body? Listen.

(I've got to get this in here, too:
"If you're someone from one of the think tanks that dreamed up the Iraq war, and predicted that we'd be greeted as liberators, and that we wouldn't need a lot of troops, and that iraqi oil would pay for the war, and the WMDs would be found, that the looting wasn't problematic, that the mission was accomplished, that the insurgency was in its last throes, that things would get better after the people voted, after the government was formed, after we got saddam, after we got his kids, after we got zarqawi, and that the whole bloody mess wouldn't turn into a civil war, you have to stop making predictions."
