Ok, now, y'see, that's exactly the sort of post I was referring to when I said I couldn't be sure I understood what you were saying. Which recalls Terrance, Campbell Morgan, et al.

But yeah, I would say that if you 'cannot see' the 'obvious cartoon satire' of BUsh in the Jeshimon passage, then there must be some reason for that. Possibly the reason is you don't want to see it? I really don't know.
