GW: Frat Boy

Playwright Seth Greenland writes over at the Huffington Post [Hat Tip: Daou Report]:

After the Koran-in-the-can story, and Friday’s photos of Saddam kicking back in his underwear, what’s next for the U.S. military? An all-out panty raid?

The whole world’s becoming a frat party and the President of the United States is manning the keg. With his prancing around a destroyer deck like a member of the Village People and his calls of “Bring ‘em on!”, the former cheerleader has certainly shown it’s still all right to have fun!

On a more serious note at the H.P., Stephen Elliott takes on the new Anti-Gang Act.

    Sorry griffen, GW strikes me as the most profoundly boring human being on the planet. He's a bully, a spoiled silver spoon, and I doubt we'd have anything to talk about.

    CA writes - "I think an aircraft carrier would easily qualify a means of destruction or destroyer." Or, as the people in SE Asia found out a few months ago, one heck of a means to deliver relief supplies into areas that have been destroyed by mother nature.

    If Seth Greenland is going to bash Bush with authority, then he needs to learn the difference between an Aircraft Carrier and a Destroyer. Maybe he should check his facts before posting.

    Did somebody say something about Republicans and fun? Oh, boy. Dudes and dudettes, bros and bro-ettes, there is still time to get in on the all week end Freaky Friday Republican War Party!

    Long before there was a naval ship called a destroyer there was a term "destroyer" that identified a person or thing as a means of destruction. I think an aircraft carrier would easily qualify a means of destruction or destroyer. For those of you with a military background who wish to quibble, well, knock yourself out. Bring it on, as Dubya said. Mission accomplished.

    CA: Thanks for the permission to quibble! I feel better. Dark: Great idea! I need another job. Fact checking the NYT is definitely a full time job. At least there is consensus on the need for fact checking no matter what political ilk.

    Regarding the Elliot piece, could are society really be so short sighted? The 15 yr. old kid goes into adult "repeated ass rape" prison a bumbling robber, comes out a cold-blooded killer with an axe to grind against a society that turned their nose up while he is repeatedly raped and beaten. God help us 15-20 years from now.
