    I think you broke the code yes. I think it’s moderately likely that “get your hands dirty” will become a phrase we hear again in the somewhat-near future as shit gets more and more real leading up to the election.

    I’m not saying that at all as a good thing, just where the GOP seems to want things to be heading.

      “Having the strength to do the dirty work” has been a euphemism for committing selfish, barbaric atrocities for…forever, basically. A lot of the people prosecuted for Abu Ghraib used similar justification, for example.

        They don’t seem to realize that Col Jessup was the villain in A Few Good Men.
