Yes, we are dicks

As much as I dread posting my news via The Daily Show, I haven't really had much desire to get back into the political arena lately. Probably the barrage given from both extremes (clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right) has caused my desire to shrink back and exploit my knowledge in the pop culture arena (and as so obviously pointed out last night, and forever more, not much in the sci-fi arena, but a passable amount).

However, a look at The Daily Show's opening story just seems to necessary here. Apparently we are forbidding France, Germany, and Russia from getting post-war contracts to help rebuild Iraq. But, in this case (I have to watch myself from this becoming a habit), I actually agree with George Bush's reasoning. WHAT!? Yes, I believe that you cannot bitch about something then profit from it, or if you do profit from it, you should be given as hard a time as possible. These three countries refused to help in the attacks, and, thus, they shouldn't be able to benefit from it.

Call me a dick, but I actually agree with this one.
