Peace be with you as well.

p.s. the snowflakes freaked me out at first; I thought for sure it was the start of a migraine.

Once upon a time in the daze of the fog of war, peace was taken captive and sent to Gitmo for waterboarding ... where it confessed that "war is peace"; then said confession was used against it in "a fair military trial" in "accord with Geneva 'we don't torture peace' conventions".

And all the MSM said "ahhhh ... ain't Amurka beautiful to behold?" as lawyers for The Blogs For Peace tried to file a Writ of Habeaus Corpus on behalf of Peace, but were denied it in a decision of the Star Chamber III, while a chorus of congressional democrats sang Ole Lang Zine, and Mele Kalikimaka was translated with spin.

Thanks for all you do and have done, Brad & Company. Please indulge me my political incorrectness if I wax Dickensian: God bless us every one.

May the cats of the world deign to ignore you for another year, except when they don't ...

I'm in the Berkeley hills with a house full of cats for the next two weeks! [Substitute slave while their real slave family goes to Hawaii....]

yes, God bless everyone --- no exceptions!

(that includes the kitties)

We can't have peace on earth because the MSM won't allow it ... according to one bradblog hero?

He "reveals" a notion that myths are of the most powerful of entitities in Amurka:

Goodman’s “Democracy Now” on Dec. 20, Conyers said the U.S. news media has become such a problem that any Democratic attempt to hold the President and Vice President accountable might end up achieving the opposite result.

“There is a very stark reality that with the corporatization of the media, we could end up with turning people, who should be documented in history as making many profound errors and violating the Constitution, from villains into victims,” the Michigan Democrat said.

(The Free Press Rules Peace, emphasis added). We can't impeach war criminals, obstruction of justice criminals, contempt criminals, or perjury criminals in the United States because the "free press" would not like it?

Sounds like a powerful thoughtcrime John ... war is peace, freedom is slavery, impeachment is treason ... so I guess we wish war on people so they can have peace or wish peace on people so they can have war?

Amurka, gotta luv it ...

Peace on Earth --- I'll go along with that --- or as the pre-eminant philosopher of our time once uttered: "can't we all just , get along"!?!
