Where’s Osama? When’s it gonna be over?

WASHINGTON: Has it really been three years? My how time flies when the Bushvolk are having fun!

They’ve already invaded two Muslim countries, Afghanistan and Iraq, and are considering a third conquest, Iran. That ought to win some hearts and minds over there.

And you thought this wasn’t a Crusade!

Yes, Iran may soon get hold of the Big Kaboom, but North Korea already does. Incidentally, the Southeast is handled differently than the Middle East. Unlike the Koreans, who have the means to blow us to smithereens, the Iranians do not yet have the capability to act on their threats. Both nations are controlled by oddballs, so why the disparity in US foreign policy, Comrade Condi?

When did you last hear this president mention Osama bin Laden at length? During his propaganda blitz last week that began in Ohio, Mr Disconnect was all Iraq, all the time. Osama bin Forgotten is more like it.

The Bushvolk’s pre-emptive military strategy has helped the Iraqi insurgency mature into a cross-border revolutionary force. Civil war, a predicted outcome, has come to pass.

As if the al-Qaeda riffraff weren’t keeping our troops busy enough, now US troops face bullets and bombs from people who aren’t terrorists but resisters insistent on an unoccupied country. Our troops are caught in this crossfire.

1. 1. 10 years is NOT "soon". 2. WHAT "threats" has Iran made towards us?
3. WHY can't the "media" ever get ALL their facts straight in an article???

2. Bin Laden? Bin Laden? Bin Laden..?
Simone: Um, he's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Osama pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Economics Teacher: Thank you, Simone

Simone: No problem whatsoever.
