My fellow Americans. One of the reasons we invaded Iraq was because I suggested Saddam Hussein had something to do with the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. No evidence that's so, I wish I hadn't said it.

I said we were going to get Saddam Hussein. To be honest, we don't know whether we got him or not. Probably not.

I said we'd get Osama bin Laden and wipe out al Qaeda. We haven't been able to do that, either. I'm as disappointed as you are.

I probably shouldn't have said Iraq had nuclear weapons. Our guys and the U.N. have looked under every bed in Iraq and can't find one.

(much more, and well worth reading)

1. ROFL

When I landed on the deck of the carrier, I wish they hadn't put up the sign saying MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. It isn't accomplished.

Maybe it should have been MISSION IMPOSSIBLE.

2. Andy's pissed because he discovered the Freeper blast e-mails

like so many of theirs who either make up a person out of whole cloth or just affix omeone's name to it who didn't write it, like Andy.

Now he's pissed. But he's old, and like so many who grew up during the age of the Old Republic, he won't be with us much longer.

It is a good time in history to be an old man, Andy. Pity the children who will live to see Imperial Amerika in 2100.

3. Andy should come vist us, he could include a LOT more.

It's about time he wised up, if he has. He's done a lot of damage.
