"Legal experts say there is no law against using faeces as a flag stand and the federal constitution is vague on the issue."

This is terrible.

Quarterback: KR: "Ok, here’s the plan.  Scare the shit out of everyone and pretend there are Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq.  You know cause people are easy to scare after 9/11.  We can use the WMD as a pretense for preemptive attack!  Then you can become a "war president" and people will re-elect you, cause you know its unpatriotic not to, and gay people shouldn’t be allowed to marry.  Then once you get re-elected you can call OFF the search for Weapons of Mass Destruction."

Water Boy: GWB: (in GWB twang, cowboy hat, boots n holster): "But why Karl?  I jus don git it."

Quarterback: KR: "By then we’ll have already found our Weapons of Mass DISTRACTION and you’ll be re-elected, drunk with power and just as ignorant as ever."

Water Boy: GWB: doing Will Ferrell, doing Anchorman, (responding to the comment about his bad hair) "What did you say?"

Quarterback: KR: "I said you’ll be drunk"

Water Boy: GWB: (in GWB twang, cowboy hat, boots n holster) "That’s what I’m talkin bout"

Wow it looks like The Last Minute’s time machine has a very lame sense of humour.

What would Jesus do you ask?  I respond to you: He doesn’t take my calls.

How about what would John Stewart do? Watch and learn.

I just can’t believe THEY GAVE UP SEARCHING FOR THE PRETENSE FOR GOING TO WAR?

AM I TAKING CRAZY PILLS?  DOESN’T THAT BOTHER YOU????

In a real life re-enactment of the fictional movie JAWS, Australian authorities are now hunting a great white shark which killed a teenager who was wakeboarding off an Adelaide beach.  Why are authorities now hunting this shark???  If you go in the ocean there is a chance – though extremely slim that you could be attacked by a shark, its that simple.  Sharks are absolutely amazing creatures and should be left alone!!!!!!!  To quote the VICTIMS FATHER: "We acknowledge that the sea is in fact the shark’s domain and we don’t, and I certainly don’t, advocate the indiscriminate killing of any shark"

Soldier to Rumsfeld: "Why do we soldiers have to dig through local landfills for pieces of scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass
to uparmour our vehicles?" Army Spc Thomas Wilson asked."

Soldier to Rumsfeld: "We do not have proper armored vehicles to carry with us north,"

Rumsfeld to Soldiers: "You can have all the armor in the world on a tank and it can (still) be blown up,”

Easy for you to say Rummy when you don’t have bullets whizzing by your face.
