Who remembers the Armenians

Armenians? Armenians? Didn’t they commit genocide against the turks?

Well, no, it was the other way around. But at Mount Doom on the Potomac, the goddamn B*sh junta is hoping that if they simply invoke Godwin’s law it will cause people to agree that doing a Soviet-style show trial against some people who they tortured into confessing that they are responsible for the rotation of the earth was just like the Nuremburg trials, and nobody will twig onto the teeny detail at at Nuremberg, the torturers were dragged before the dock, tried (in a real trial, not the sort of staged for political benefit stunt that the Evil Party is doing to bolster their electoral chances in the 2008 “election”), convicted for crimes against humanity (things like torture, unprovoked aggressive warfare, genocide, and the rest of the checklist that the B*sh junta is hurrying to finish up before they decamp from the smouldering ruin they’ve made of the United States of America.)

The Bush administration has instructed U.S. diplomats abroad to defend its decision to seek the death penalty for six Guantanamo Bay detainees accused in the Sept. 11 terror attacks by recalling the executions of Nazi war criminals after World War II.

I’m sorry, but it’s not legal in this country for me to fully express my ongoing displeasure with these scum. So I’d like to take this opportunity to express, to the Coward in Chief, the rest of the B*sh junta, their stenotypers in the media, the brownshirts that make up the Evil Party, and the quislings in the Stupid Party who are enthusiastically supporting this ongoing festival of Nazi-style evil, that you go fuck yourselves with a running chainsaw.

I’m just waiting for the “We’re stopping the Holocast!” argument in defence of the ongoing Iraqi bloodbath. Oh, wait, the sadistic sociopaths at Mount Doom have already done that stunt.
