It’s official: We’re fucked.
As Comedy Central’s “fake” news show sends its correspondants to do the reporting the “real” news won’t do in an effort labelled “Operation Silent Thunder,” the Bush Administration’s Iraq policy, especially as it gears up to ghostwrite Gen. Petraeus’ September report on the progress (or lack thereof) of the clusterfuck in Iraq, more closely resembles “Operation Silent, But Deadly.”
Meanwhile, Congressional Democrats are still deploying their stale, 14-year-old strategy, “Operation Where The Fuck Are My Balls?” Even as the conservative punitocracy launches “Operation Nuke The Darkies” and “Operation Gilead.”
I’ll be in the corner, curled up in a fetal position. That is, if I haven’t drunk myself into oblivion at DL tonight. (Which would be a first - I’m a total teetotaler when it comes to alcohol - never really found a drink I particularly like.)
Try Vodka and Lemonade

Heh. To be honest, the closest thing I’ve found to a decent alcoholic beverage is a mojito. A local restaurant, Z Tejas, offers an interesting variant that adds either a strawberry or cherry flavor (I forget which) to the traditional mojito that I liked, too. But for the most part, I’ll either stay dry, or go with the malt liquors (Zima, Skyy, etc.).
