Bush plays the appeasement card, reminding us who was nice to the Nazis. Meanwhile, leading McCain endorser John Hagee sez the Jews dressed provocatively.

Both links thanx to Oliver Willis

S.I. Hayakawa tells the story of a white man who was introduced to a woman with a Japanese name, made sure he was pronouncing it correctly, and then said, "I'm sure you find our names difficult, too. Mine is John-son," which was very polite, except that the woman had blonde hair, blue eyes, and a Japanese husband. These people aren't quite as stupid.

Thanx to boxofdelights

I have never liked "Myanmar"'s State Law and Order Restoration Council, and their current efforts to turn disaster into catastrophe remind me of a bit of verse I came up with years ago when they started arresting people for possession of ideas with intent to distribute:

Don't be a dork
Don't be a slave
Get rid of SLORC.
Myanmar Shave.

The behavior of some animal species is brutal and disgusting, but there's no point in arguing with evolution (as someone should have pointed out to Ben Stein). If there must be media feeding frenzies, it should be ~~Republican~~ Bush's party politicians.
