Bush has also offered his most beloved recipie to American democracy called the Texass Shit Sandwich.

1. Get some shit.

2. Smear it on some white bread.

3. Bite it. Chew well. Swallow. Cause it'll be shoved down yer throats otherwise.

4. Wipe the shit off your lips.

5. Smile, and God Bless America ("looka that shit eatin' grin!")

Kudos for whatever role Steve and the NAF played in steering America away from hubris, fantasy, machoism with the killing of the Bolton nomination. Perhaps we are indeed on the slow road back to becoming a principled nation, away from the self-destructive past of genocide and sole decider for the world in terms of how people are to be governed and how their resources are to be used. While I would not advocate letting down our guard until we all agree as a nation that using force against Iran is such a bad mistake that Iraq would look like a success story in comparison. And we need to make clear we understand that the rest of the world sees nuclear weapons for what they are- the modern equivalent of Hitler's concentration camps for "final solutions" ie extermination and cremation camps that happen so fast no fences, guards, or buildings are required. To continue to demonize Iran, and "know" Iran would use nuclear weapons (they don't have to actually cross the energy to weapons divide to achieve their aim) is sheer madness. Even Hitler understood the blowback from any use of the sarin gas he invented and never considered using it - UBL's tactics, whatever we may think, are generally thought out and based on sound strategic principles.

In that sense, I continue to be amazed by the clarity exhibited by the New America Foundation, especially Steve and Flynt Leverett. For those who did not see the killer panel put on yesterday by the Cato Inst.(hosted by Chris Preble and shown on C-span) that included Flynt, Bob Pape, Dana Priest, Rand Beer, and Andrew Kohut from PEW, it is available as an MP-3 podcast

Sounds like a healthy drink Steve. But if you really want to make it happy, you could slip in a little vodka!

Steve,

Sounds good but I think the recipe would be enchanced by adding a few nuts--almonds perhaps to provide more protein and some good fatty oils.

Serve each Cheneyburger in an uptown doggie bowl with the inscription "Poochie Power"

Following the meal, lavish your dog with praise, love, more love -- and a whole lot more love.

Damn. There ain't no Jamba Juices in this backwater burg of central Cal, so I guess I gotta settle for a Cherry Cream Slush from Sonic Burger. But thanks for the reminder Steve, its time to restock the fridge.

I'm thinking I need to get a copy of this cookbook, primarily to see Howard's entry. I had no idea the guy could cook. Unless it's a recipe for ice cubes or something :-)

"I had no idea the guy could cook..."

I don't think he does much cooking. I saw some photos of his kitchen in Time or Newsweek when he was the frontrunner. The kitchen was a BIG mess.

Made me love Howard even more!

Hey, if all it takes for you to love a guy is a messy kitchen, than by God you're gonna WORSHIP me!

Hey POA,

I **already** worship you for your passion, but worry a bit about your blood pressure!

Well, I won't give it away, but it's simple and written in a style you'd expect from Howard Dean. -- The editor

A friend and I put together a cookbook to benefit Doctors Without Borders after the recent string of disasters. It's available at Lulu.com and is called And They Cook Too.

It was a fairly effortless fundraiser, with all profits going to the charity.

Sounds like a fine recipe. I like the idea of adding some nuts- maybe almond butter- to it. I also wonder if there is any connection to the Food For Thought place that used to be in Dupont Circle on Conn Ave.
