Please, don’t take Obama seriously

Hannah Arendt argues that great evils in history are not executed by fanatics or sociopaths but by ordinary people who accept the premises of their time and believe their actions are normal.

Voltaire put it this way:

Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit atrocities.

Overseas Contingency Operation on Underwear

Global War on Skivvies

Various Briefings and De-Briefings

Operation Butterballs

Going commando

In a majority opinion written by Clarence Thomas, the Supreme Court has now ruled that due to the ingenuity of the diaper bomb, upskirt  photography has become a powerful tool in the global war on skivvies, and that there is no longer a reasonable expectation of privacy in these nether regions.
