Smoke and mirrors

Check out the headline on Elizabeth Bumiller's story in the NYT about why Capt. Codpiece has such deep feelings about Mexican immigrants. You can almost hear the inspiring theme song from "How the West was Won" playing softly in the background.

Gag me.

Bush's speech had nothing to do with illegal immigration from Mexico. It's a non-issue, timed to distract us from other, more immediately important matters, such as illegal, warrantless wiretapping, National Security Letters served on journalists under the Patriot Act, and Turd Blossom's imminent indictment in the Plame case.

I'm off to work so I can keep the nest in macaroni and cheese. More later.
