The Silence are a fairly recent creation, and not as instantly recognizable as the Daleks or Cybermen.

They have a sort of psychic shield that means that you could be staring straight at one, but the minute you look away, you forget all about the encounter. For all you know, you could have just seen one before reading this message.

I mean, you got Hologram Reagan, the Invisible Hand Of the Free Market Man, The Mad Scientist, Condi, Jeb, Queen Marie ANNtoinette, that giant snapping turtle from Jersey . . . and pretty much all the facts of this ghastly circus laid out bare for the world to see. I cannot get how anyone's undecided or leaning right. I can't. These guys are nothing but a bunch of drunk clowns throwing up on America.

It's a STAGGERING demonstration of CHUTZPAH in the Pantheon of Lying for GOPers to constantly claim Duhbya "kept us safe" in the face of the WORST ATTACK ON U.S. SOIL in our entire history! After decimating the administration's counter-terrorism efforts and blatantly IGNORING THE PDB warning about "Bin Laden Determined to Attack," that single counter-factual claim betrays an abject lack of anything approaching integrity.

It's also a staggering indictment of the "right-wing mind" that can accept such a total LIE.

Tom Tomorrow nails it with "the fellow who became President on Sept 12, 2001."
