this guy needs a lobotomy




WASHINGTON - President Bush held up Turkey's democracy as an important example for other Mideast nations Wednesday during an Oval Office meeting with the country's prime minister in which both leaders declared a strong relationship after differences over Iraq.



"We're happy that we were able to confirm that our strategic relationship will move and take place in the future as it has been done in the past," said Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

1. ANOTHER one?
Isn't he already a drooling idiot? What good would a second lobotomy do?

4. He did. It was a chemical lobotomy.
However, he's partially right. Turkey is a lot closer to democracy than most of the other dictatorships and kingdoms in the area are. They're progressing at a glacial pace, but they're doing it slowly enough that the zealots aren't getting angry enough to overthrow the government.

After all, this present march towards fascism in the US is mostly a reaction against all the social progress in the 60s combined with a reaction against the regulation that gave this country its longest period of prosperity in its history. Both those things happened a little too fast for the rich and the stupid.

5. He is absolutely right this time
A turkey can be carved up in small pieces, like this democracy.
