In its ongoing effort to give Americans a different kind of education, MoveOn.org is raising money to air this print ad about what the escalation really means.

You know what they say about gullibility: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. “Fool me six billion seven times, call me a Republican senator,” Free Republic adds in our heads (out of context, but a catchy ending nonetheless.)

To be fair, Republicans, Democrats and alternative parties alike are sweating bullets about Bush’s latest flight of projectile fancy.
