How Soon We Forget.

At this weekend's White House Correspondents Dinner, the following
exchange apparently occurred between Al Franken and Paul Wolfowitz:

Franken: “Clinton’s military did pretty well in Iraq, huh?”
Wolfowitz: “Fuck you.”

It actually used to be said by insiders that a President fights a war using the military his predecessor created. So, after all the yelling the GOP did about Clinton ruining the nation's military, that very GOP just conquered Iraq using Clinton's army. More evidence of the lack of continuity in how Americans view their own history.

    Good ol' Al! Gotta love him. Remember his "Deep Thoughts" schtick on SNL? He's deep.
