"If you die horribly on television, you will not have died in vain. You will have entertained us."
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. has written a brilliant editorial on a topic which may or may not really be the Bush administration. In usual Vonnegut fashion, he implies much more than he actually says, thus saying it much more clearly. Slaughterhouse Five and Breakfast of Champions are two of my favorite books of all time. If you've not read them, please do.
Not-really-very-similarly, Bruce Fiestein has a hilarious bit on the BushCo vocabulary up at the NY Observer.
6) "High moral ground." We've lost it. Lose it from your vocabulary.
