1. A question for those Republicans who are slamming Ron Paul for betraying “party unity” by not endorsing McCain: If Paul had won the nomination, would McCain and his McCainiacs have endorsed him? (No fibbing, now.)
2. Starbucks has quotations – usually insipid or moronic ones – on its coffee cups. Mine today’s was from Madeleine Albright: “There is a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.” I wonder if it’s anywhere near the place in hell for people who think killing half a million Iraqi children is “worth it.”
There’s a certain obscenity in McCain’s gassing about the “decency” of the United States when outside the hall his cops were brutalising innocent people. But my favourite line was this one: “if you’re disappointed with the mistakes of government, join its ranks and work to correct them.” Try substituting “the Mafia” (or “the Gestapo,” or “the Sith,” or “the Hosts of Hell”) for “government” in that sentence.
