Well, we learned one thing yesterday. Zacarias Moussaoui is so incompetent, he couldn’t even get himself the death penalty, no matter how hard he tried. Still, I reckon he’s our big victory in the War on Terror – or at least the skirmish with Al Qaeda. We didn’t get Osama, but we we got Moussaoui (and the shoe bomber, don’t forget him). We also learned that Christopher Hitchins isn’t a drunken asshole (according to Andrew Sullivan), just an asshole. And the Brits are finally smart enough to declare victory, and get the hell out of Dodge. Or at least the Al Maysan and Al Muthanna provinces. And we also saw evidence of what a great job we’ve done in Iraq and Afghanistan, as both made the top ten on the “failed states” index (Iraq came in at number four, ahead of Zimbabwe, Chad, Somalia, Haiti, and our good buddies, Pakistan). Gee wherever would they be without us? Iran couldn’t even crack the top fifty, being tied for 52 with Equatorial Guinea. Well, we’ll see if we can’t move them up a bit, won’t we George?

Oh, but shame on Stephen Colbert for being such a meanie to poor president dummy and his sycophants (or should that be psychophants – sociophants?) in the DC media.
