And I take special note that he has his own closure line, ‘Back to the Trenches!’ Bravo, Foreign Minister! Incidentally, I’d like to point out that while I didn’t have a problem with Spain turning out their pro-U.S. government, I think the Minister of Agriculture could rightfully argue that a vote for Kerry is still a vote for a pro-U.S. President and theefore his position remains consistent. Kerry would like to see Osama bin Laden killed and terrorism defeated just as much as anyone else, and only a self-blinded ideologue would suggest otherwise. The issue under debate is whether or not the Bush-conducted war in Iraq helps us or hurts us in the war on terror, not which individual is a bigger patriot.

The correct answer is that the Iraq war hurts us, but everyone is welcome to disagree; that’s why it’s a debate (unless of course the Republicans are in charge, in which case “it’s not a time to be disagreeing with the President”).

On a lighter note, I would like to open the floor to suggestions for a Minister of Agriculture closure line, since he’s failed to select his own. Perhaps ‘Rotate your crops’ or ‘I’m not all squishy, I’m independently principled’ or ‘Boys don’t make passes at girls who are fascists.’

The last one might be a nice addition to the Maximum Leader’s rotating tagline on the blog.

The Air Marshal could use ‘Aim High,’ but I don’t know if there are copyright issues with the Air Force itself.

Believe.

UPDATE FROM YOUR MAXIMUM LEADER: As someone being accused of being a fascist at times, your Maximum Leader might not add that last one as a tag line for the site. But he did add some others….
