GW Chimpzilla's Eye-Rack · Guest

Remember this one? If only we knew who said it. Their self-created reality is in
ruins now and AWOL Bush and the Republican dead-enders are hunkered down in
their bunker of self-deception.

Here is my favorite quotation about the Bush administration, a description of a
conversation with the proverbial "unnamed administration official" by the fine
journalist Ron Suskind in October 2004:

"The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based
community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from
your judicious study of discernible reality.' I nodded and murmured something
about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. 'That's not the
way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and
when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality
— judiciously, as you will — we'll act again, creating other new realities,
which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's
actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.' "
