2. And some people will think that was some kind of parody...
or, owing to the fact that it was composed by compiliing snippets of speech out of context, that it somehow doesn't represent a more accurate view of the Bush Administration's actual, practical view of the rest of the world.

Unfortunately, though a effort at humor, it's most poignant points highlight a kind of unadmitted irony. This wouldn't be possible if the Administration's real world communicationos are all lies--and have to be parsed in this way to extract something closer to the truth.

If the Administration says "We care about the people of IRAQ, and wish to bring to them the benefits of peace, Democracy and a better quality of life...", since this is an utter and contemptable lie, it has to be parsed/rearranged and re-phrased to state the truth--that "Bush cares not about the people of IRAQ, and wishes to take their oil, bring to them the joys of violence and destruction, impose a false, puppet Democracy and ruin their quality of life...".

Some might say that such efforts, if considered to be serious works of journalism or political commentary instead of humor, amounts to fraud. How could this be fraud when it, instead of the words spoken by the (pretend) President, exposes the real "Truth"? Of the two things, the re-arranged variant is the only one with any objective/measurable connection or assocation with reality on the ground.

The essence: "everything the Bush Administration actually says is a lie, a cmplete and total fiction" and worse, the reality is that "the worst possible opposite of what they say, is in fact, a much more true description of reality".

That this comes from our (pretend) President ought to be a criminal offense--a form of "treason" against the people of the United States and beyond! Yet it is not--it is rather, the "accepted" version of reality foisted upon us in cooperation with the M$M.

Will we ever see "Honesty", or at least the avoidance of outright lies, once again become the expected/required behavior on the part of our elected officials/leadership in government? I wonder.

7. indeed, humor is the most...
...damning of truthes...hardly a day passes that i don't have occasion to recall www.whitehouse.org (the parody site) having Bush say in his first inhogeral address: "...the long, eight year, national nightmare of peace and prosperity is over..."
