Oh, fuck off Dept.
I think I've finally located exactly what it is about Bush and his team that irrationally irks me so (aside from all the things that rationally irk me, of course). They just keep repeating the same lies as if as long as they keep saying them those lies will come true. This is annoying firstly because it exposes such massive contempt for the American people, but also because enough of them are unimformed about such things that it just might work. Fuck off, Bush.
