"grumble grumble Hannah Arendt was witchy and shrill grumble grumble"

[phamos]

Fun fact that didn't make it into my thesis: Norman Podhoretz, neocon crank emeritus, didn't know what a Kurd was in 2003. Yay willful ignorance! Let's bomb places we don't know anything about! I hope he knows who they are now, considering they're the only ones over there who still kinda like us a little bit. (Just wait, once we totally screw them over under pressure from Turkey, they won't like us anymore either.)
