I was watching a some sort of satirical show with my parents today, and as it perfectly laughed up the present political situation in my country, we all enjoyed it, fishing out all those "cute" remarks about those in power. I have friends who share my sense of humor.
Now I'm reading your comments about the current geopolitical sitiuation, and particularly about Dubya and war in Iraq.
And this is what came to my mind:
When (most of) the people you surround yourself with share your point of view, you have strange feeling that other people think the same, that this is how others perceive the events. The only thing that wakes you from such folly is "If they're all thinking "it's all wrong" just as I do, then why we're still in this madness?".
To make fun of a commie motto:
"All sane people of good will - unite!"
