from an AP article, reported by Kathy Gannon:


"On the eve of the vote, President Bush criticized the election as illegitimate, saying it was designed to keep a power in the hands of a few.

'The Iranian people deserve a genuinely democratic system in which elections are honest - and in which their leaders answer to them instead of the other way around,' he said in a statement released by the White House."

I'll just be snuggled up in the corner over here, with a bottle of prosecco and my longterm ongoing fantasy about the entire tribe of NeoCons. It involves tumbrils, Karl Rove and friends all sans culottes in short white robes, Mme. Guillotine at one end of the Reflecting Pool....

You know, the crowd of little aristocrats getting thinner and thinner. On Pay Per View. With all the proceeds going to Planned Parenthood.
