Didn't anybody actually read that book? (everybody seems to think they did)
So, leave it to the comedians to explain it to us once again...
Some noteworthy quotes from this video:
And then comes the video of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, declaring Hezbollah is now the "A-Team of Terror". [And] they "make Al Qaeda look like a Minor League team."
Thank God (or Allah... oosp...I almost typed "Gog" instead of "God"... Gog? Magog? Any of you Revelations Apocalypse junkies out there?) we have a new Bogieman to live in perpetual fear of.
Watching that clip of Chertoff reminds me of that passage in Orwell's 1984, where the Propaganda Minister is lauding East Asia's assistance in battling the Evil that is Eurasia, and is interrupted by a guy handing him a sheet of paper, whereupon the Propaganda Minister resumes railing against-- not Eurasia this time, but the Evil Empire of East Asia, and without missing a beat commends the valient efforts of our allies in Eurasia.

Some noteworthy quotes from this video:
Al Qaeda is losing? They're our key ally in never having to explain what out government is doing.
If suddenly Al Qaeda isn't so threatening, how will we justify limitless executive power?
