As Amerikkka's Liar-in-Chief George W Bush and his Vice President Darth Cheney continue to spout the lies that sent the world into a tailspin, my gut churns at the sight of a chicken-hearted man of empire, attempt to bathe himself in the once-great Muhammad Ali's Parkinson-addled glow.

If only Ali could have delivered one of his mighty uppercuts to the smirking Shrub.

The Bush administration has established the U.S.A. as a paragon of vicious hypocrisy as it preaches (literally) the rule of law and denounces human rights violations among others while systematically breaching them itself. History will wonder how Americans could have allowed such a thing to happen, just as it did in reviewing the rise of Nazi Germany.

In a sane, civilised and democratic U.S.A, how could Dick Cheney, for example, seriously propose that the CIA be exempted from a ban on "cruel, inhuman and degrading" treatment of detainees, so much so that the Washington Post has dubbed him the "vice-president for torture"?

And to what end has America come to when Lawrence Wilkerson, who served as chief of staff to secretary of state Colin Powell from 2002 to 2005, postulates that Cheney must have sincerely believed Iraq could be a spawning ground for terrorism because "otherwise I have to declare him a moron, an idiot or a nefarious bastard".

Crawford, Texas -- A tragic flood this morning destroyed the personal library of President George W. Bush. The flood began in the presidential bathroom where both of the books were kept. Both of his books have been lost.
A presidential spokesman said the president was devastated, as he had almost finished coloring the second one.

The Ape gone Mad

Now you see him
Now you don't
He's George Bush swinging from a tree
He's started World War Three.
