That Ain't Right

Hilarious. Reuters reports that "President Bush on Tuesday held up progress in Afghanistan as a model for Iraq as he tried to paint the U.S. involvement in the Asian state as a success in his run-up to the November U.S. election. "

Afghanistan, where the US puppet has no security outside central Kabul, where poverty remains endemic, where the women who dared take off their burquas (after US encouragement) have been whipped back into obeisance, where production of opium is at all-time highs, where war-lords continue to rule the countryside and the Taleban is experiencing a re-birth. What a model!

I just watched the comedy "Head of State" last night. As Chris Rock says, "That ain't right".
