He does it so vividly publicly that they can't retaliate. Bet he's gotten a thousand times more out of them than Noriega ever did, too. We had a vestigial press in Noriega's day... and the population hadn't been anywhere near this psychedelicized into brute unconsciousness. Noriega is probably green with envy.wimpyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00073194470627227599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33147437.post-58790872626183538682010-10-03T22:20:36.967-07:002010-10-03T22:20:36.967-07:00Oh, I was thinking aggravating to me.
