Remember when we all joined hands to laugh at the “truth” provided by Baghdad Bob as he spoke from the rooftop of the Iraqi Communication Center, while hiding adjacent bombed-out buildings with curtains as he stood defiantly at the edge, arms flailing at some obscure smokeless area, proclaiming victory was near. He became a media phenom in those early patriotic days of the Iraq war. Yup, he kept us perpetually amused with his blind eye and forked tongue.

Yet while we chuckle at folks like Baghdad Bob and his faithful, we clamor into our own lines on a cliff, ready to jump when given the “truth” by Hannity or Franken, Limbaugh or Rhodes, Mehlman or Dean, Fox News or Air America, Frist or Kennedy, ad nausea or et cetera.
