Whether it’s true or not, it’s a facinating read.

Someone claiming to be an anonymous White House insider has posted a treasure trove of dirt on the people highest up in the Bush Administration. The details are so bizarre that I can’t fathom anyone having the imagination to make them up. The guy has a killer sense of humor. This is the most enjoyable read I’ve had in a long, long time.

I guess I’m obliged to post a sampling. It’s all so good that it’s hard to choose. A lot of it is laugh-out-loud funny.

Everyone loves how Condi smells and we do anything we can to sniff her while she isn’t looking. If I knew what perfume she wears, I would simply soak a sock in it and writhe in orgasmic ecstasy without having to stalk her everywhere she goes. After she shook hands with Putin, he sniffed his hand again and again. Her aroma is heavenly and legendary throughout the world.

I don’t know if she’s on to the fact that everyone is sniffing at her, but tons of us are doing it, and it’s very difficult not to bust up when I catch someone else doing it. Everyone loves her enchanting aroma.

I’ve seen her greet foreign dignitaries from a distance, and invariably their hand goes to their nose, it is f***ing uncanny. The rumor is that this is either some KGB perfume or something the CIA cooked up to make her irresistible. Maids comment on it. Cooks comment on it the kitchen staff and sniffs her used napkins. Everyone is in on this thing except for her. We all know everyone else is doing it. It is the most massive government conspiracy I have yet known, and I suspect it goes all the way to the top.

But there’s one thing he says that rings all too true. This should be some news magazine’s quote of the year for 2006.

Democracy as a government relies upon the ability of factions to compromise on divisive issues through rational debate instead of violence. The current political power brokers have figured out how to short circuit this process by focusing national attention on issues which are based on differences of non-negotiable, irrational moral sentiment, and are thus not subject to resolution through rational reconciliation. They’ve broken democracy.
