Way, Way Beyond "Heh" ... Dementia Territory In Fact

Glenn points to this BOWT entry as a "heh" today. I don't see how that even begins to describe it. Dementia patients that ask what time it is every 5 minutes are more with it than this. What the h*ll is sub-puerile nonsense like this doing in anything rumored to be a respectable publication like WaPo -- complete with editors no less?

Froomkin quoting Murtha as saying pulling out of Iraq will cause the terrorists to leave us alone followed by smirking dismissal Cheney's argument that "It is a dangerous illusion to suppose that another retreat by the civilized world would satisfy the appetite of the terrorists and get them to leave us alone" as a straw man? That nobody is making this argument???

WaPo and Froomkin are literally demented themselves or have absolute confidence that their readers are enough so that they won't notice. The only good thing I can say is that it may be difficult for them to be both...

If Froomkin isn't old enough to be demented then smoking a lot of dope would be the likely alternative.

"MSMemory Hole" doesn't begin to describe this either. Not only have they sucked Orwell into his own Memory Hole, but their brains are at the epicenter of it.

I'm finally beginning to understand -- and it's scaring me. As C.S. Lewis said, the devil's greatest advantage is the belief he doesn't exist...
