Circling the wagons over the "Axis of Evil" speech, are we?

On the outside - Eurotrash. The type of people who played footsie with Hitler.

On the inside - 100% Americans, their supporters, and everyone else on the right side of history.

It's not a gaffe, in retrospect something better left unsaid. Nope, it's a "pretty sophisticated concept." For clarification, watch the remake of Oceans Eleven with George Cluney, Brad Pitt and Don Cheadle, and it will become clear just how sophisticated of a concept it is.

Well, Frank, having no intention of watching the remake of Oceans Eleven, this obese, non-soft-drink-drinker (trying to lose weight, but I would drink Coke, not Pepsi), card-carrying registered Republican, says the column is purveying cold, fizzy, sugary junk rather than intelligent ideas. Bad for the teeth, bad for the waistline.

Whoever wrote "Axis of Evil" must have been smoking dope, listening to Jimi Hendrix's "Axis of Love" and figured it would be a cool idea, kind of like Reagan's "Evil Empire," only even better.

In the cold daylight of sober morning, it was D-U-M-B. So what? Everyone says dumb stuff now and then.

Dubya is trying too hard. He's like the quarterback that wants to be like the valedictorian, using words he doesn't understand.

They used to say "let Reagan be Reagan." Well, "let Dubya be Dubya."

In the meantime - chastising people for questioning Der Fuhrer isn't something we do in America.
