Some of you may recall my piece criticizing the first Gulf War: "Who's Sane?".

Dubya sits astride the football, posing with his pals in a twist on the three monkeys theme: see evil, hear evil, speak evil. Condi sings the tunes as Colin plays clean-up. Rummy caresses a lightning bolt. The pillars of power (his Weapons of Mass Destruction) flank "King George II".

In the foreground, familiar players take in the weird scene while enjoying a round of cigars with Castro, including Clinton with the blue dress across his lap and Hillary staring at his backside. "Bad Santa" Saddam chats with Osamama. The capital is surrounded by dirty money as a flood of blood and oil pollute troubled waters and acidify the atmosphere. A storm approaches.
