Comical Scotty

“The Al-Qaeda leadership is on the run and under a lot of pressure. We are continuing to take the fight to the enemy abroad, and making it difficult for them to plan and plot against America,” White House spokesman Scott McClellan said in Twentynine Palms, California.

Was this before or after the Jews were driven into the sea? McClellan sounds like Comical Ali during the US invasion of Iraq. This ridiculous kind of language, so obviously crafted to excite patriotic jingoists in the interior, is more befitting a bin Laden tape than the official voice of the most powerful political leader on earth. I guess I just expect smoother lies from an entity that has been lying for 230 years. Look at Tony Blair, now that is slick. Keep up with the times — Americans are more sophisticated than you think…I think.

Anyway, I thought we were done with this stammering, flinching, watery-eyed yahoo. I miss Ari.
