WHAT-EV-ER

Dear Diary,

I am way over people in the UK protesting my visit to Blackburn. Don't they know I view them as an exercise in democracy? I so do not find them off-putting or disconcerting in any way. It's like they're reinforcing for me why we invaded Iraq in the first place. I mean, pretty soon people in Iraq will be able to protest if they want to -- except they won't need to because the government we're setting up for them is going to be so kick-ass.

Anyway, I think Foreign Minister Jack Straw is totally cute.
