Bush's Jacobean Tragedy

The old English major in me really appreciated this article by Gary Kimya for Salon:

http://www.salon.com/opinion/kamiya/2007/01/09/revenge/index.html

I wasn't overly impressed by his"Old Testament God = vengeance/New Testament God= forgiveness" false dichotomy (cripes, dude, ever read the Gospel of Matthew?), but he's obviously a literary type, not a religious scholar.

It's good stuff.

I am not even turning on the television tonight lest I see the Leering Chimp on some random newscast.

Thanks to my cousin Matthew for the article.
