I'm just saying..

Since the dawn of time there have always been uncommon villians afflicted with every sort of manifestation of warped rearing that can be present in an adult or adolescent. They tend to group up with other dysfunctionals that have a similar outlook, all hearkening back to the monkey/tribal aspect of homo sapien's roots. So forgive me but wow *yawn* another tribe of chest-thumping knuckle dragging misfits are grouping up to cause harm to [insert target name here].

Really, there's a lot of good in the world too. A lot of uncommon good. Stuff that teeters on the edge of miraculous if I dare say it. I've come to notice in the media that it barely gets a mention, hardly a passing comment. So consumed is the primal monkey in all of us to see a bloody confrontation, the morbid fascination, that we are suckers for people like Cheney who use that innate reflex to keep us fearful, clinging to each other in the branches and shouting threats at the other [insert name here] tribe.

The tribe over in the middle east known as 'The Iraquis' has some of the best banana bunches in the world. They're black, in puddles under the ground, but they couldn't be $weeter for the silverback Cheney et al. Iran has some too that this knuckle-dragger would love to find an excuse to beat up the other reigning silverback there named Ahmadinejad. And for some reason, I think in deference to a pact Cheney made with a silverback in Britain et al. named Tony Blair, they wanted to help each other steal some really good bananas first in the Middle East jungle, and then over in the Asian jungle.

The republican party has always been appealing to either the monkeys with the most bananas or those too dumb to see that the banana-rich monkeys were using them just to get and keep more bananas. Chest-thumping and “whoops” can go a long way in keeping the lesser monkeys obedient. The more fear they can instill in this lower eschelon, the more control they exert. It's simple monkey-math.

Anthropology is a fascinating subject.
