The onion gets it spot on
17th March 2003
Okay, now I have absolutely no intention of taking this blog in a political direction (for the record I’m anti-war) but I’ve seen a couple of links to the Onion recently that I just can’t resist blogging. First up is Bush: “Our Long National Nightmare of Peace and Propserity is Finally Over” which was written two years ago but, read now, just looks spookily accurate (link via Back-to-Iraq). The second one is the absolute classic God Angrily Clarifies “Don’t Kill” Rule, linked by Simon Brunning.
