Blaming the electorate -- again.

Quick test: when you read this post, what do you think Jules and Putz are talking about?

"THE STATE OF THE UNION IS A DISASTER:" Jules Crittenden pens -- er, types -- the speech that George W. Bush should give tonight.

Iraq? Katrina? The deficit? Health care?

Nope -- it's all about how the American people are a bunch of spoiled surrender monkeys that don't get it.

The disaster is that you, Congress and the American people, do not care to fight.

Faced with a fundamental challenge to our own security, to everything we believe in, to the world order to peace and security for which we and our parents fought so hard for so many years, you now want to pretend like none of these threats are real. You want to surrender to the evil I have been telling you about. An evil that, unchecked, can consume large parts of the world and threatens to usher in a dark age.

Question for Jules: how do we "surrender" to a war between Shia and Sunni? And if this is a "fundamental challenge to our own security" and "everything we believe in" and if we're staring into the abyss of a new "dark age" why are we only sending another 21,000 troops there?

And then, the inevitable close.

A nation that is not willing to fight for what it believes in, for its place in the world, is not worthy of its own ideals. But that is not America. I now intend to help America restore its faith in itself. By fighting this necessary fight that we cannot afford to lose.

So … are you with me, or against us?

This is so beyond self-parody that I don't know what to call it.
