Mark Twain has a quote for everything ...
How would he have explained Bush's adventure in Iraq? He might tell the story of the young missionary who went out among the cannibals:

"They listened with the greatest of interest to everything he had to say. And then they ate him."

2. One of my Twain favs (there are many)
is this one:

"Never trust a man without a vice."

Words of wisdom.

3. He's great...
and his "War Prayer" is very powerful stuff, guaranteed to offend any pro-war freeper-type.
