This struck me as strange
Maybe it's just me, but when I heard Fuckface say the following during his speech today, I thought, "He's talking about himself, the clueless bastard!"

What do you think?

"Like the ideology of communism, Islamic radicalism is elitist, led by a self-appointed vanguard that presumes to speak for the Muslim masses. Bin Laden says his own role is to tell Muslims, quote, "what is good for them and what is not." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Muslims is that they become killers and suicide bombers. He assures them that his -- that this is the road to paradise -- though he never offers to go along for the ride."

Psychologists call it projection.

4. That wasn't supposed to be in the speech .....
That was the text of his mutterings as he was shaving this morning. Karl thought is was kool and changed a few of the names to prop up the guilty.

11. Be careful who you hate, because good chance you
will start taking on the characteristics of the hated one.

MLK said it best - the only way to break the cycle of hate is with love. For instance, Bin Laden will remain problem as long as we continue to think of him in the same way we have been thinking of him. I am not advocating befriending him or any such nonsense as that. It's just that collectively, we need to think about him and those who follow him differently. What we are doing now is not working as you all may have noticed.
