Good point. And now we have a weak mass movement and soldiers  
bragging about raping Iraqi women and shooting civilians on You Tube.  
But at least there are some good jokes floating around. Did you here  
the one about the crash of Air force one in a Vermont field? The CNN  
newsroom was getting conflicting reports on whether or not our  
esteemed great decider survived the crash, so they sent out a news  
team to investigate. When they arrived, sure 'nuff air force 1 was a  
smoldering wreck, and just on the other side stood a farmer leaning  
on his hoe in front of two freshly dug graves. When asked, the farmer  
replied that yes indeed the prez and the captain of the jet were  
lying side by side. One reporter asked, "But we heard Bush might have  
survived". To which the farmer replied laconically, "Well, he kept  
saying he was still alive but you know how the s.o.b. lies".
