Has confusion set in yet?
Are the pacifists who had the words "Bush War Crimes" hot-ironed onto their foreheads - those who had visions of impeachment plumbs dancing in their tired minds - wondering what the hell is going on? Perhaps that swearing-in ceremony on Capitol Hill was nothing but a sweet dream - complete with botched Oath, pre-recorded "play along" string arrangement, racist benediction and listless say-nothing speech.
Maybe George W. Bush is really still in charge.
It just doesn't make sense otherwise.
Those aren't birds or locusts ... those are question marks flying from the spinning craniums of peace-symbol wearing twenty-somethings (and their sixty-something grey-haired pony-tailed mentors) trying to figure out how such a Bush-like move comes from such a savior.
How could The One - the Messiah, if you will - approve of such a thing as launching missiles to kill people? That's the kind of thing Republicans do. That's the kind of thing that war mongers and right-wing trigger-happy xenophobes get off on.
