The Ship Of Fools

SS Shaka Naw

( shock and awe)

or Condoleeza's Boat 

It is about a year since Israel invaded southern Lebanon.

The President and Ms. Rice laughed about it a good deal. Ms. Rice said that all the hubbub was nothing but "the birth pangs of a new Middle East".

One may only assume that Ms. Rice knew nothing about birthing no babies. When Hizbullah did not roll over and play dead, our rulers sat up and took notice that the game was afoot.
