Analogies

"President" Bush announced his plan to - and this is a quote - Bolster Abbas and Push for Peace Talks.

That's like Mel Gibson pushing Hitler to not be anti-semitic. Or perhaps it is more like Hitler pushing Mel Gibson. Depending on your perspective.

That's just what the middle east needs, George Bush's brilliant grasp on policy. Israel/Palestine is probably the most complicated relationship in the world. Blaming only one is about as ignorant as believing that "Domestic Wiretapping" is actually limited to suspected terrorists. But apparently, G-Dub (trademarked) thinks that somehow he has some sort of "expertise" in mending violent relationships and that he needs to get involved with a group of people so on edge that they've actually already run over the cliff and are about to look down.

And exactly which faction of the Palestinians will be helped by Bush's "Git-R-Done" philosophy? Jon Stewart put it best when describing the two major groups:

"While Fatah just wants to kill the Jews, Hamas, on the other hand, wants to KIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL..........JEEEEWWWWSSSSSSSSSSS....."

Great. Perfect area for the G-Dub genius. Next, let's have him explain Gun Control to Darfur, or safe-sex in Africa, or Science to Iran.

Or, better, let's send him to Venus to teach the Venusons (?) about how to keep their air clean. I can't think of a better place for him.
