Inane Conversations

If you and I ever have a funny conversation, and I remember it, chances are I'll adapt it for a strip. This enables me to pass off other people's jokes as my own, a clever technique which has resulted in some of my best work.

	You don't have to be overly cynical or paranoid to accept that the government may have known this was going to happen. There's enough historical precedence to suggest it's at least feasible.


	Even I'm not that cynical. Washington rejected certain intelligence, but I think that even Bush himself, who I think is evil and stupid, would've jumped in front of the planes to prevent this.


	I'm no historian, but I have great difficulty thinking of a single instance where a government has been so altruistic. If Dubya would have done that, then he's a total saint.


	I can't find where I called W altruistic, but if I did I take it back. I think the "blood for oil" thing, the corporate crime and the death squads down south might mitigate his claim to sainthood.


	Realpolitik is as contemptuous of one country's dead as it is of another's. Operation Northwood is just one example that shows that - unless you think cynicism has abated since the 60s.


	Anyway, enough stalling. Now eat the damn biscuit!
