1. How could that be?

On the Rush show last week, they were blasting the "liberal" media for not telling us the good news about how the military is providing more water and electricity than was ever provided under Saddam, and that any minute the Iraqis would be dancing in the street praising us for bestowing democracy and reliable plumbing on them.

2. Rush doesn't like the truth

Remember, he deals only in "entertainment"....unfortunataely people believe what he says.

5. Well, if Iraqis are dancing in the streets, it's likely due to ...

unreliable plumbing. ;-)

3. I guess the UN forgot to tune in Chimpy in the Rose Garden this AM

The Chimp-in-Chief* -- with furrowed brow -- alleged that the US is doing a "splendid" job. We know his record for telling the truth.


* Clearly rejected by patriotic and discerning US voters in the 2000 election; appointed to office by the so-called supreme court.

4. Did Shrubenfuhrer take any questions from the press?

Oh sorry, forget it. Couldn't have been thinking too clearly when I asked that question.
