It's hard out there for a satirist

One of the things that makes writing a blog (and by "writing," I mean projectile vomiting of whatever comes into my drugged, yet tormented brain each day) pleasurable also makes it fun for the readers: finding really stupid people who disagree with you and holding them up to the light of reason and ridicule to which they are so unaccustomed.

So that's why it's not just the cringing fear that the mayberry messiah is going to begin "Armageddon, Phase I" with a "tactical" nuclear strike on Iran that has made writing this humble blog so difficult in recent weeks. It's also the great difficulty in finding any longtime Bush toadies who aren't running away from his "dimitude" just as fast as their pudgy, Brooks Bros. clad legs will carry them.
