6. Remember the Abu Ghraib photos ...

and that poor man who was wired for a mock electrocution? :-(

Like I said, I feel guilty for laughing at the costume, but humor has become a defense mechanism for me - if I didn't occasionally laugh about all the crap Bush* has done, I'd cry for weeks.

On edit: I don't mean laugh as in "Let's make a joke out of it" - I mean laugh at the absurdity of it all. It's surreal ... I can't believe what has happened in the last four years. :-(

Sort of like this:



"The Johnny Space Commander costume, actually a plastic bag with a rubber band. Pull bag over head, and tighten band around neck. Your own breath inflated the bag to its space helmet appearence"
