"Battered Gaza Still In the Grip Of Hamas," from the Washington Post.
Yeeeesss…in just the same sense that the United States is still in the grip of the Democrats and Republicans and Israel is still in the grip of Kadima. How odd it is that elected governments continue to govern, even when we disapprove of them!
(Actually I'd be more than happy to support this nomenclature, so long as the Post was willing to apply it universally.)

Just wait until we , like , totally disapprove of Pakistan and stuff—its a secret plot to pull the people behind their governemtns. Its worldwide.
If somone keeps you from needed food, water, oil, etc, and, that not being enough humiliation, decides to launch a full scale US bought and paid for invasion on your village of stone huts, why would you support the ones who oppose them?
Silly people…

Solve your own fricking problems, adults!)
They say the exact same words he does, they wear t-shirtts with his face on it,(well, an unreasonable facsimile) and they read comic books with him the star…the marketing of the czar..if I were him, I’d try to have more dignity about the whole thing—but , once youve sold your old logo to Pepsi…Remember “Buy the World a Coke” and “Pepsi Generation”? Gawd, everyone I knew thought it was corporate assholism!

A monarch? There are elements of the Obama mania that remind me of North Korea. Bleh.
