1. I saw Woolsey...
...spewing the new party line over a year ago. I used to suggest such an angle of attack when we were all bemoaning the CAFE standard snubs by greasy oil executives. The Bushies offered a hearty "fuck you" to any legislation that would "hamstring" our auto giants. (Stop laughing.) That was around the time that Cheney was sneering about conservation being a "personal virtue". (I know, the words "Cheney" and "virtue" in the same sentence. Send me the Pulitzer. Stop laughing!)

I reasoned if everyone was in a froth about them filthy oil stained Muslims coming to molest our women, children, and Hummers, we should use their mindless propaganda-powered wrath, kind of like a Prius using stored braking energy. I could see the glossy print ads. You know, with Paul Hawken and Frank Gaffney planting a great big American flag atop a nuclear plant cooling tower. It could be the environmental movement's Iwo Jima. Victory over infidel oil! God Bless Arco!

There is no doubt that virus multiply. They are entering the new host, replicating with astonishing fury.

(Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.)
