He told me they are both intellectuals. Paul is a bit of a dreamer.” To Wolfowitz, Chalabi must have seemed an ideal opposition figure. “He just thought, This is cool—he says all the right stuff about democracy and human rights. I wonder if we can’t roll Saddam, just the way we did the Soviets,” the friend said.</i><br /><br />You have to love this, especially the we're "both intellectuals" and "Paul is a bit of a dreamer" parts. Sure, Chalabi was a whore and grifter doing the long con on Wolfowitz, and he belongs <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferno_(Dante)" rel="nofollow">in hell</a>, say the Eighth Circle for fraudsters. But Wolfowitz is Ninth Circle material, for his treachery to the American people getting us into this war, and, ah, all the blood on his hands, American and Iraqi alike.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08880308031096340258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-23331054663382603452015-11-04T18:47:50.944-06:002015-11-04T18:47:50.944-06:00This one is quite formidable as well; perhaps she&...<a href="http://s26.postimg.org/me0h3ijh5/Madoka_ultimate_Earth.jpg" rel="nofollow">This one</a> is quite formidable as well; perhaps she's an adopted imouto-chan?<br /><br /><i>"What's that, Mr. Galactus?

What if the Nazz, when he heads off to chill with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Young_Men" rel="nofollow">Sid</a>, leaves the judgment of the war pigs in the hands of His sister, who looks down at them and speaks the dreaded words:<br /><br />"I have no interest in ordinary humans..."<br /><br />(Before he kicked the writing habit to devote his full attention to Triffid ranching, Paul Riddell used to describe a certain grin of his, alternately, as "like Anton La Vey receiving an invitation to the Pope's wedding" or as making his friends ask "Where's Sigourney Weaver with a Power Loader when you <i>need</i> her?" That's the kind of grin that's on my face now.)Neo Tuxedohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455041641080873400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-4399477721830319052015-11-04T14:33:46.972-06:002015-11-04T14:33:46.972-06:00I can't bring myself to wish the traditional v...I can't bring myself to wish the traditional version of Hell on anyone.<br /><br />OTOH, a part of my soul would be pleased if on Judgement Day, when the neocons and their minions came before the Nazarene, He decided to take a break from judging:<br /><br /><i>"Mr. Serling, would you please fill in?"</i><br /><br />But control that part I must.
