How they have fallen

Or: Mahathir has turned into a goddamn idiot. Or maybe he's always been like this, but everyone was too scared of indefinite detention without trial to say anything.

Also, I've been accused of being an Obama shill (why ever would people think that?), but this annoys the hell out of me almost as much as the insane 9/11 conspiracy theories:

“Well, I am a bit disappointed because so far none of his promises have been kept. He promised to get out from Afghanistan but he ended up sending more troops there instead. He promised to close down Guantanamo but he has not closed down Guantanamo. Even other things he has not been able to do."

Okay, firstly, Obama's never promised to get out of Afghanistan. NEVER. Iraq, yes. Afghanistan, nope. Believe me, I followed his campaign very closely in '08. Also, the Guantanamo thing is a stupid thing that got shut down by stupid, scared, corrupt Senators, but that's a whole other thing.

But seriously, Mahathir, you're a goddamn idiot.

Malaysia's Mad-Hatter!
The man seems to have finally lost all of his marbles.
If he ever had any credibilty, he has certainly lost that too.
