It was late; my eyes were bloody red tired; I needed some music to get me focused for one last paragraph. But the debul must be fuckin’ with me. Who else could slip Wayne Newton‘s “Dake Shaen” into my iTunes?! Anyway. I put it in the trash, and played this.

LIAR Magazine is working overtime. But then, so is Sarah Six-Pack. I like LIAR Magazine. I subscribe. It’s good to know who’s telling the biggest, most outrageous lies in a world beset by falsehood and deceit on every side.

One of the greatest attractions of patriotism— it fulfills our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to bully and cheat. Bully and cheat, what’s more, with a feeling we are profoundly virtuous. — Aldous Huxley “Country First” John McCain: “I am not a perfect vessel.” I’ll see your “Country First” and raise you a …
