America the fucked, or, How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb.

Today General Petraeus is being grilled in front of Congress over the war in Iraq.

And does it matter?

NO!

For fuck's sake, the man isn't going to give you a real answer. He'll dance around the goddamn question and refuse to actually say anything other than "Surge = Working, War = Continued forever."

I'm not watching it, I don't want to start grinding my teeth like the time I watched Bush invoke executive privilege for anyone called to testify over former AG Gonzales.

UPDATE: Okay, I caved. I watched it while in the Park Laptop Center. Every time someone spent a minute or two of their alloted five caressing Petraeus for his "service to the country" I made the motion of someone stroking his dick. Anyone who walked by would have been really really bewildered. Also, there was lots o that juicy "Iran is linked to violence in Iraq" bullshit.

Here's the only real good one, by the guy everyone thinks I'm crazy for liking.
