Too Much Thinking - If You Think About It

Sometimes, The Onion is just so close to right (as in, "correct") that they must be sleeping in Karl Rove's bedroom.

Now, there's a revolting thought. If you think about it.

Anyway:

"I'm pleased to announce that the Department of Defense and I have formulated a plan for a speedy withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq," Bush announced Monday morning. "We'll just go through Iran."

Bush said the U.S. Army, which deposed Iran's longtime enemy Saddam Hussein, should be welcomed with open arms by the Islamic-fundamentalist state.

"And Iran's so nearby," Bush said. "It's only a hop, skip, and a jump to the east."...

If this wasn't so close to Bush's actual brainwaves, it would be scary. No. Wait. Let me think about that for a minute.

After all, the road to Baghdad airport is extremely dangerous, right? Yeah.

I thought so.
