In the true Christmas spirit, the Bush administration has decided to sic DOJ investigative squads on whoever leaked news of the NSA’s domestic spying program. And as we’re sure John Yoo would agree, if the Bush administration even suspects one of their own may have said something that casts the whole operation in a bad light, even if they’re merely exposing the administration’s complete disregard for the rule of law, they must automatically be “enemy combatants,” and can therefore be shipped off to Uzbekistan for some good, old-fashioned, extreme rendition. Good times, good times.

And with that in mind: Ladies and gentlemen, uh, we’ve just lost the picture, but what we’ve seen speaks for itself. The Constitution has apparently been taken over — ‘conquered’ if you will — by a master race of giant space elephants. It’s difficult to tell from this vantage point whether they will consume the captive earth men or merely enslave them. One thing is for certain: there is no stopping them; the elephants will soon be here. And we for one welcome our new NSA overlords. We’d like to remind them that as a trusted blog-based personality, we can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground peanut caves.
