"Political language -- and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists -- is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."

Plane and Simple
Have you had enough "missing plane" coverage yet? Well, I'm no Courtney Love, but I think Dr. Samuel L. Jackson may provide a clue as to what really happened.
As far as I can tell from my visits to the gym, which is the only place I ever see either CNN or Faux News, nothing except that plane has happened in the entire world for the last two weeks. I guess they expect us to be grateful for covering the only piece of news in existence so obsessively.
