Suggested program of recovery for Dumbya, who's in deep denial...
(I posted this earlier in another discussion, and I was so taken with my own cleverness that I thought I'd repost it here.)

Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over lying and WMDs -- that our lives had become unmanageable.

Step 2: Came to believe the Constitution -- a power greater than ourselves -- could restore us to sanity.

Step 3: Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of democracy in the United States as interpreted in the Bill of Rights.

Step 4: Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

Step 5: Admitted to the American people, to ourselves, and to Congress the exact nature of our wrongs.

Step 6: Were entirely ready to have Congress remove all these defects of character through impeachment.

Step 7: Humbly asked the Congress to remove ourselves and our partners-in-crime.

Step 8: Made a list of all persons persons we had harmed or caused to die, and became willing to make amends to them all or to their survivors.

Step 9: Made direct amends to such people who were still alive, wherever possible, except when to do so would endanger them further or cause them to die.

Step 10: Continued to take personal and corporate inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it in sworn deposition.

Step 11: Sought through meditation and daily press conferences to improve our conscious contact with the American people as we understood them, praying only that we could further understand them and their needs and the power to improve the lives of the downtrodden and neglected.

Step 12: Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to the hardcore Freepers and to practice Democratic principles in all our affairs.

(with thanks and apologies to AA...!)

1. Very clever
but don't forget

13: we joined the Peace Corps and pledged our lives to helping those around the world less fortunate than ourselves.

THE END

2. Dumbya is in Deep Stupidity
He actually thought he could sell to the world that Iraq was an imminent threat. I guess he thought the working class wasn't near as smart as his ruling class gave them credit. Classic caste system.
