Even the 'axis of evil' speechwriter has abandoned the sinking ship.
To David Frum, the former White House speechwriter who co-wrote Bush's 2002 State of the Union address that accused Iraq of being part of an "axis of evil," it now looks as if defeat may be inescapable, because "the insurgency has proven it can kill anyone who cooperates, and the United States and its friends have failed to prove that it can protect them." This situation, he says, must ultimately be blamed on "failure at the center"—starting with President Bush.

P.S. Truly ashamed that Frum is Canadian.

1. Another RAT deserts the sinking ship ...
He sure wasn't singing THAT tune until he realized the last lifeboat was about to launch.

But as he ventures into the land of political obscurity, he'll have plenty of time to play back those tapes of himself praising the Bush agenda and bragging about how well it's going -- literally just a few weeks ago.

2. there are Canadians, Americans, Romulans, then there
are Reptilians.
Frum's one of those.

Fuck him for being so dumbly stupid or playing some stealth hand he's been dealt and be a part of Choas Headquarters as it is now. Like I believe anything he says, ever. He'll always be dirt to me, no forgiveness from me, sorry.

3. Even sadder is that his mother was Barbara Frum...
...the great LIBERAL Canadian journalist from the CBC.

4. A day late and a dollar short.
Just like their evil masters.
