Department of Stupidity Department

One of the many ludicrous charges being floated by the Republicans now is the notion that Democrats are plotting "to establish a Department of Peace." That's good old Majority Whip Roy Blunt. Not that there is any remote possibility of this being true, but more interesting is trying to fathom the reason Republicans find this particular bogeymany scary.

Greg Sargent of TPM Cafe is reminded of the great Onion headline:
Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over'
That was on 17 January, 2001, folks. Pretty damn scary how prescient it was.
