Flowers for Algernon?
Except in this experiment, the brief period of intelligence was indiscriminately ignored, edited, lied about, redacted, misinterpreted, misconstrued, denied, and otherwise shat upon.

I begin to understand the president’s condition…
Yahoo News caption: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans of a 44-year-old man’s brain show a huge fluid-filled chamber called a ventricle taking up most of the room in his skull, leaving little more than a thin sheet of actual brain tissue, in this handout image released by French researchers July 19, 2007. The man with the unusually tiny brain has managed to live an entirely normal life as a married civil servant with two children despite his condition, according to the researchers.
While I didn’t expect them to actually disclose the president’s name as the patient, I thought that “married civil servant with two children” was overly vague, and did they really need to lie about his age?

On the ground at the far right of this image is the flag they started with: ours. Indeed, Iraqi citizens, who supposedly view us a “liberators”, are so pleased with our military presence and the violence it attracts, that they wanted to thank us and our Allies in Hegemony by burning our flags for us. Indeed we should definitely keep our troops over there longer, and in greater numbers, so that more random acts of kindness like this can take place.
