Lowered Expectations
Sorry I haven't ranted in a while (over two months!). Unfortunately I haven't seen too much that pisses me off enough to complain about it. Plus I've been busy reading Mark Twain.
I thought however that the latest news flash from the Bush adminsistration is just too good to not laugh at.
The Bush administration is telling us to lower our expectations for the upcoming elections in Iraq.
Someone should explain to the president the meaning of the phrase "lower your expectations".
Does anybody have high expectations for the elections outside of the Bush administration? Even most people I know who support the war (I'll include myself in this as I supported the aims of the war if the not the strategy employed) think that any elections held now will be an abysmal orgie of violence at best and the beginning of an al qaeda dominated stat at worst.
On the plus side at least they're no longer doing an impersonation of the traffic cop in any given Japanese giant monster movie, standing in the middle of an intersection shouting "Don't worry we have everything under control" while Godzilla destroys the city.
