Colin Powell Accuses Saddam Hussein
Deeply disturbing. Deeply disturbing that this level of surveillance and intrusion exists. "Ah, but we've got to keep an eye on this malevolent bugger!" I hear you say. Well like he's the only one captured on Washington's hidden upskirt satellite cam. (Space exploration is ONLY about discovery and pioneering dontcha know?) Big Brer is here big time. (You might note that I am one who never resiles from stating the frigging bleeding obvious.) Invasion of privacy and national sovereignty is O.K. if the object of our desire is a "baddy" and "we" are the white hats.
Uncle Tom Powell's "Surveillance 101" lecture to the U.N. is passing ironic given America is gungho on the domestic legal front about invasion of privacy, Miranda, stalking and all of those rights that make America "the land of the free".
VERY selective perception and application of high principle methinks.
Uncle Tom's U.N. presentation in a word ... regurgitation. In several words ... grasping at all those straws which will bring those nervous nellies, krauts and frogs on board the Good Ship Blixkreig. (and our Jack obviously likes a good grasp on his straw.)
See ... told you I need a long strong black coffee before my brain hits the synapses running.
UPDATE:- Impressed by what it saw at the U.N. the Academy has engaged the team responsible for "A Weekend at Colin's" to direct this year's Oscars. "We were knocked out by the laser show, the editing, the special effects and, most of all, by the fast paced wisecrack delivery by Colin Powell. In the past Oscar night has become bogged down by too much detail, too much introspection, altogether too much gravitas. I think these guys have really got a handle on what makes a fun night really rock.", a spokesman for the Academy said in a tapped phone conversation.
