out!
Kissinger, Cardinal Law and (I missed this on Wednesday) George Mitchell.
Please, could Poindexter be next?
Kissinger said he’d be perfectly happy to disclose the names of the evil regimes his consulting firm has helped maintain in rapacious and bloodthirsty power, but he’s afraid it wouldn’t stop there, and that he would be pressured to stop maintaining evil regimes in rapacious and bloodthirsty power at all! So he stepped down.
I have to admit, there was a kind of lunatic hilarity to it all. I figured that since the Bush administration had already come this far, we’d wake up one morning soon to discover that they were actually televising child sacrifices on the steps of the Capitol, and we’d all just sort of shrug and do that “How the hell am I going to explain this to my daughter in sixteen years’ time?” grin that we all do now…
