The White House declares war on the Onion?

[lectrobyte]

Good thing we don't have things like high fuel costs, or that Osama guy, or anything else more important to worry about. That's the thing about little boots, he's so insecure, he can't take a joke.

1. When they start attacking satirists, the buffoons,

its a sure sign that they have lost the people -- at least all the bright, witty people, all the trend setters. What losers they are in this White House.

2. ...But only as a "last resort"...LOL n/t

3. I think they tried a similar thing

with whitehouse.org... and if I recall, they didn't have a leg to stand on and quit after a couple of threatening emails.

4. wow, how dumb can the WH get?

I once heard that Bush got really mad while watching a Saturday Night Live parody of himself. I heard he was yelling "Turn it off! Turn it off!" at the tv screen. He is very insecure. No doubt about that.

5. Unless he has one of those fancy voice controlled TV's

That won't work. I find I have to use my remote if I don't like what I'm seeing. Or in a pinch, change the channel manually!

7. The Onion is a threat to national security.....

They may have weapons of mass destruction.... I say we invade their offices.... preemptively of course.

But first I'll send one of you to an african nation to see if there's any buyin' an sellin' of bad stuff.... When you come back and say "It's not happening"
I'll diss your SO and endanger the lives your children.

8. Well, if they run that war like the one in Iraq, the Onion will win.

9. Gee - like handing out the medal of freedom to people who have failed

really helps the image?

[gratuitous]

10. Bush IS aware that the presidential seal isn't his personal property

Isn't he?
