Somebody had to do it.
Perpetual conflict's the name of the game. The more absurd the better. Weakens brains. Ratchets emotions.
Because this "Crisis" hits a ten on the Absurd Scale and also is neatly contained within the party -- within the One Man within the Party, no less -- I see it as a sign that the GOP has everything under control. As it should be.
God forbid we spend too much time wondering about Mr. Hanky's two-minute stint cut short by "conflict of interest" that curtailed Bush's bringing to bear (so to speak) the all-powerful Kissinger on the question of how some pennyante Saudis managed to start World War III with dramatic strikes at the WTC and ... oh, a bit later ... at the Pentagon in our nation's capital.
Go Trent Go!!
