Now Isn't That Odd?

"New Zealand's TV3 has apologised after a graphic labeling United States President George W Bush a "professional fascist" flashed up during its prime time news."

This amuses me a great deal.

    Nonsense. He's a bumbling amateur. Rummy, Cheney, Ashcroft and Poindexter are the professionals. More seriously, I wrote them an email outlining the characteristics of a fascist state. Maybe they'll risk the wrath of the howling baboons and do a story.

    Professional?! Please, the man is an incompetent moron by the standards of the real fascists. Claiming he's a fascist is insulting to Hitler, Franco, and the poor clown Mussolini. Surely those tower a good many heads and shoulders above Bush in sheer diabolical impact. Now if they had put "Professional Puppet" instead, that might actually have been correct. He's the shaky, tongue-twisted moron whom Rummy et al trot out when they need a proxy to speak to the world.
