Oooo, I’m Gonna Make Such Faces At You (Which Can’t Be Quoted)

(NYTimes) Devastating Criticism on Iraq by Both Parties

(AP) Lawmakers grill Rice over the Iraq war

(HuffingtonPost) Condi’s “Old Lies”

(CNN) Rice ‘loves’ Fox News; CBS anchor ‘decent guy’

Finally people are getting the huevos to call these people and, especially, this woman who has gotten a free ride, liars. It’s interesting that so many of them have Presidential ambitions, don’tcha think? Also interesting that the AP article commented on how unflappable La Rizo con dolcezza was, while the NYTimes called her “visibly exasperated.” Also from the AP article: “Some of the toughest comments were directed toward Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. ‘This is the craziest, dumbest plan I’ve ever seen or heard of in my life, Rep. Neil Abercrombie, D-Hawaii, told Pace.”

And on a happier note, we will be taking off for the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Holiday (ooo that’s a mouthful) and will be back on Wednesday 🙂

Get Out Yer 3D Glasses! Our 3rd Anniversary Toon In 3D!

(Newsweek) Pounding the Keys “There she was playing her Brahms sonata, while 5,000 miles away the Mideast burned. It was all too tempting for columnists to make snarky references to Nero and his fiddle, and a few did” I was too upset about it last week for a snarky reference in my cartoon, so I’ll make up for it now 🙂

OK, we know you have a pair of 3D glasses lying around–you know, the red-green or red-blue variety that came with Spy Kids and Fruit Roll-ups (or whatever that concoction was)…lol, if you don’t you should, and if you’re really hard up for them, you can get them at American Paper Optics. Anyway, the RED filter should go over the LEFT eye and the BLUE/GREEN filter over the RIGHT EYE. Not the greatest 3D picture, but I kind of liked the idea of a third anniversary in 3D after seeing JAWS 3D and FRIDAY THE 13TH 3D

And This Year’s Hank Kissinger “Heartless” Award Goes to Condoleezza Rice!

Birth pangs, Condi? Oh, please, ordinarily we don’t expect birth pangs to kill off the mother. And to anyone who thinks it’s unfair of me to use Condi’s childlessness against her, that was her choice, as well as her own choice of metaphor. This whole situation makes me ill. I feel as if those two kidnapped Israelis have the dubious honor of becoming the excuse for waging war, not just against Lebanon, but against Syria and Iran as well. The bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities is still pencilled in for this year…

I’m too depressed to list any articles–there are just too many to chose from. But oh yeah, Olmert sent his apologies for killing three UN observers.
