Dick, could you please pass the mashed potatoes and, um, the bogus intel?

Happy Thanksgiving the United States of Amnesia, especially today: is it just me of has every single American news outlet mixed mescaline with their turkey stuffing so the only thing they're reporting on are new Rachel Ray recipes for pumpkin pie gravy and how NOT to eat yourself into cardiac arrest over the 2006 Thanksgiving?

Well, at least Seymour Hersh finished this piece before he was pushed out of the way by Yahoo news deciding to post this riveting journalism about the Macy's balloons having to fly lower during the parade this year.

Um, can someone give me the OJ story back?! Weather affecting the Macy's parade??? Who really gives a rat fuck?! Over 3,000 Iraqis were killed... IN OCTOBER. I'm getting dizzy from all the head shaking (or maybe it's that mescaline stuffing).

But back to the New Yorker piece: Hersh reports that one of two things could be on the horizon regarding the previously scheduled Battle Royale between the neocons and Iran: 1) Bush Sr. takes a more assertive role in his son's presidency and gets Jr. to play in the corner while the Carlyle Group attempts to fix the playground and sends Dick to detention; or 2) The Rummy sword-falling was all part of the plan, the talk of bipartisanship is a sinking ship, and Cheney is still at the helm, disregarding CIA intel suggesting that Iran has not been working clandestinely on a nuclear weapons program, and contending that the reason why Iraq is such a disaster is because Iran has yet to be taken out.

Well, at least the US hasn't been spending millions of dollars researching new, low-yield nuclear weapons to use insanely against Iran in a war likely to destabilize the entire planet. Oh, wait, yeah, I guess they have been... since 2003.

Yes, Americans have much to be thankful for...
