Hmmm, Do I sense a theme here?



Suddenly, the Bush administration has a new raison d'etre: the bird flu. Now, I am hardly suggesting that this isn't a genuine threat and there was an excellent article a few months back in the New Yorker about the possible devastation that the avian flu could cause (this is fascinating but, apparently, most pandemic flu's originated on the Asian continent) if it spread worldwide.

However, it is hard, post-Iraq war, after being repeatedly lied to, and manipulated a la George Orwell's 1984, by this group of Thugs to believe anything they have to say. Everything seems like it's being manufactured and endlessly spun to distort, distract, and strike fear into the hearts of men.

Cockle-doddle-doo: Libby's nothing not when the sky's falling down or so says Commander Chicken-hawk-Little Chief.
