More weird Iraq food notes...
Remember the guy who fucked up Iraq - no not him - this guy:
"This stove was an important part of my sanity," Bremer remembers with a smile as he leans against a half-ton of blue enameled cast iron, stainless steel and brass -- a La Cornue range -- in the Vermont vacation home he keeps with his wife Francie and where he is writing a book on his Iraq experiences."I had a picture of this house on my computer desktop in Baghdad," says Bremer, who also has a home in Chevy Chase. "If someone asked, I'd say, 'That's where I'm building my dream kitchen.' "
And that culinary incentive helped to keep him going in the pressure-cooker job as the controversial administrator of Iraq's reconstruction, because Bremer is also a classically trained French cook.
Yes. L. Paul Bremer likes to cook - is trained to cook! FANTASTIC! Who the FUCK cares? 100,000 plus people are dead! But L. Paul Bremer makes a mean Fontainebleau, garnished with pomegranate molasses! Great! The Washington Post titled this puke "From Diplomacy to Demi-Glace" - I looked up "Diplomacy" in the Bat Shit Crazy World Thesarus and guess what? It can also be used for the phrase "Fucking Shit Up".
Is this how it ends? Anecdotes about coffee and cake while more of our troops and Iraq's citizens die and fade from our memory...
Can I get some coffee with mine Mr. Bremer?
