BLOWJOB, PLEASE
The latest leak of a British memo -- stamped "Top Secret," it records a threat by the Bullshitter-in-Chief to bomb an Arab TV station in Qatar, a key Gulf ally -- is one more reason to ask (along with the protesters, below): "Would somebody please just give him a blowjob so we can get him impeached?! Somebody?!"
Yesterday's front page of the Daily Mirror, right, headlined a report that told how, last year, "Tony Blair talked [the Bullshitter] out of attacking satellite station al-Jazeera's HQ in friendly Qatar." Now the British government has warned the tab "not to publish further details" of the memo or face prosecution under the Official Secrets Act. "It is believed to be the first time the Blair government has threatened newspapers in this way," The Guardian reports today.

The British government claims the Bullshitter was only joking, and nobody took him seriously. So why not let us see the rest of the memo? We know he's a doofus. One more bad joke won't hurt us even if it's liable to give us indigestion. (We're going to enjoy Thanksgiving anyway.)
