A headline from The Scotsman today--and Bush's chronic inability to admit his and his administration's bad judgements, off-the-mark decisions, and true motives--reminds me of this quote from Boris Pasterak:
As for the men in power, they are so anxious to establish the myth of infallibility that they do their utmost to ignore the truth.
So as Tony Blair denies that Britain's stance on the Middle East and on the crisis in Lebanon will fuel extremism (wha-a-a-a?!?) Blair admits Cabinet is split over Middle East...finds him admitting disagreement within his government, but not the outcome of his government's policies. Makes sense in an Orwellian universe but not outside the elite bubble--Million Man Marches notwithstanding.
Those politicians! What and how many truths will it take?

SATURDAY 8.5.06: Remember in 1996 when NASA's exciting DC news conference announced the discovery of life on Mars? The rift between NASA's McKay brothers continues: After 10 Years, Life-On-Mars Rebuked. With Mars as the god of WAR, seems we've got plenty of Mars right here on earth...and what is Martian bacteria doing for that?
