Axis of Evil Question
Ask this question to everyone you know.

Since it was announced that Iraq, Iran and North Korea were declared the "Axis of Evil" by our current President, do you feel safer?

Iraq - Elective War
Iran - Potential Nukes & really the ones backing terrorism
NK - Crazy Man who apparently has (or is close to having) Nukes

Thanks, George.

1. Probably the dumbest statement he ever made.

2. it all depends on the context:
as manipulative rhetoric designed to disguise the neo-con agenda, and sell an idealized (and sanitized) version thereof to Congress, the economic elites, the public and the M$S, it was effective and low-grade brillient. Problem is, as (foreign) policy, it was the biggest mistake ever made by any president...but as the first director of the faith-based initiative (who coined the phrase Mayberry Machiavelli's) said, everything--which is to say, EVERYTHING--in this regime was subordinated to domestic political considerations; and now the entire planet is paying the price for it...even (at long last) the GOP itself.
