The Rattlesnakes Are Committin' Suicide

Unclaimed Territory - by Glenn Greenwald: Defeatism and attacks on the Commander-in-Chief during a time of war

While I think it's plenty scary that these right wing chickenhawks are abandoning Bush because he's just not bloodthirsty enough for them, it's still gratifying to watch all these rats jump ship. Even the wingnuts seem to have finally grasped that George W. Bush really is one of the worst president's we've ever had, both in terms of effectiveness and competence. He clearly has no useful grasp of the Middle East whatsoever and is basically mailing in his second term. He's like a little boy lighting cobwebs in his parents' basement who, now that the fire is burning, has no clue what to do about it. He just watches the fire and hopes no one notices that he set it.
