Comments on Elusive Competence

We have three take-aways from the George W Bush/Iraq War years:

1) This whole sick episode has pulled back the curtain to reveal our own government is a dysfunctional sham and a fraud controlled by our worst citizens.

2) Americans are grotesquely stupid, and we’re talking troglodyte stupid. The voting public and traditional media have swallowed every propagandist lie spewed out by shameless DC sociopaths.

We've learned absolutely nothing from history and will continue to repeat past mistakes.

3) If you expect the worst, you won’t be surprised or disappointed.

I saw it last night too. What really hit me was the fact that OHRA (or whatever it's called) recommended that the national library and museum be protected by US forces right after the fall of the government. That recommendation was ignored and library was set on fire loosing all documents spanning thousand years. The museum was looted of 7,000 years worth of art and artifacts. The only building protected by the US military? That's right, the Ministry of Oil...
This war is clearly the biggest military botch in the history of the U.S. (maybe in all history?).

I saw "No End In Sight" this past Thursday afternoon at the Egyptian - there were no more than ten audience members. That theatre should be packed for each and every showing. The fact is most Americans just don't give a fiddler's fuck about this war and its colossal mismanagement. If the Bush administration were actually a business corporation - as seems to be implied - all of its executives would have been unceremoniously sacked years ago for sheer ineptitude. How can you get angry if you have a constant conduit of musical (sic) cacophony piped into your brain? The PodBudz Generation will predictably remain somnolent, soporific and stupefied until a draft is actually instituted and their self-absorbed insouciant lives are suddenly threatened with potentially disruptive discomfort.

@ 3:

its fucking AUGUST, and everyone in seattle (80% for Kerry, remember?) already knows this shit backwards & forwards. depressing your audience is not a recipe for packing the house anywhere in the world.

i never saw Farenheit 9/11, either. BECAUSE I WATCHED IT IN REAL TIME.

Oh, like it's not 120-degrees in-the-shade-fucking-August-in-Baghdad, too. Oops, I forgot - those guys there signed up for it. Well, hopefully the war's social directors will provide them (during their off time from worrying about losing precious body parts) that neat new has-the-audience-rolling-in-the -aisles-jackoff movie. I know that would keep my mind from wondering what it would be like to be demolecularized by an IED. Empathy - the last charity?
