Boston Globe Wins Dumbest Argument of the Day Award

Unfortunately, the article is from July 30 - still, we defy anyone to beat this:

Nevertheless, Bush's refusal to risk political capital in Mideast mediation is having calamitous consequences. Bush refused to talk to Arafat because Arafat lied to the White House about a shipment of arms destined for Palestinian gunmen. Arafat, however, lied to nearly everyone.

Oh, well in that case let's give him lots of money and weapons. Because if he lies to everyone, then at least we know what to expect. How does that even get published? No seriously - how stupid do you have to be to type that into a word processor, tilt your head, consider it, and conclude "yeah, that sounds about right"?
