The madness of King George, the Lesser:

Then, pounding his lectern, the president said, “I heard somebody say, ‘Where’s Mandela?’ Well, Mandela’s dead because Saddam Hussein killed all the Mandelas.” The actual former South African president, of course, is still very much alive.

I...

Um...

Ok.

Just a quick reminder regarding Big Time's opinion of Mandela:

Cheney has done his part to put colored people in their place worldwide as well. Cheney consistently voted against sanctions on South Africa for its policy of apartheid (which, translated in English, means “God’s chosen few”). Cheney even had the courage to vote against every House resolution calling for the release from prison of Nelson Mandela. Cheney’s Christian conviction that apartheid was right for South Africa (and Mandela belongs behind bars) has proven correct. While liberal Democrats were falling all over themselves to pander to the votes of penniless coloreds, whom our Godly forefathers brought to this blessed country just so those lazy creatures would have work, Cheney had the moral backbone to stand up and say, “Nelson Mandela is no different than most black men – he is a criminal.”

Yeah.

For once, I'm willing to give Bush the benefit of the doubt and say that he was trying to be metaphorical, and just fucked it up. Because if you change the sentence just slightly to read people LIKE Mandela were killed, it makes a lot more sense.

If we took the higher road, yes. But the last two presidential elections have proven what happens when we take the higher road.

I say, "Why give Captain Bunnypants anymore leeway than the repugnicans gave Kerry over his 'you end up in Iraq' comment."

Amen to that, I'm sick to death of being held to different standards than those assholes. Sick. To. Death.

Until you realize that his second in command, the man he chose as his VP, happily undermined the real Mandela and cheerfully would've destroyed any so called "Iraqi Mandelas".
