OT: Sing along with Dubya!
Question:
While you’re out buying duct tape hum along to this: To the tune of "If you’re happy and you know it" If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq. If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq. If the terrorists are frisky, Pakistan is looking shifty, North Korea is too risky, Bomb Iraq. If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq. If we think someone has dissed us, bomb Iraq. So to hell with the inspections, Let’s look tough for the elections, Close your mind and take directions, Bomb Iraq. It’s "preemptive nonaggression", bomb Iraq. Let’s prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq. They’ve got weapons we can’t see, And that’s good enough for me, ‘Cos it’all the proof I need Bomb Iraq. If you never were elected, bomb Iraq. If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq. If you think Saddam’s gone mad, With the weapons that he had, (And he tried to kill your dad), Bomb Iraq. If your corporate fraud is growin’, bomb Iraq. If your ties to it are showin’, bomb Iraq. If your politics are sleazy, And hiding that ain’t easy, And your manhood’s getting queasy, Bomb Iraq. Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq. For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq. Disagree? We’ll call it treason, Let’s make war not love this season, Even if we have no reason, Bomb Iraq

If it’s any consolation, it wasn’t much funnier then either. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> While you’re out buying duct tape hum along to this: > To the tune of "If you’re happy and you know it" > If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq. > If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq. > If the terrorists are frisky, > Pakistan is looking shifty, > North Korea is too risky, > Bomb Iraq. > If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq. > If we think someone has dissed us, bomb Iraq. > So to hell with the inspections, > Let’s look tough for the elections, > Close your mind and take directions, > Bomb Iraq. > It’s "preemptive nonaggression", bomb Iraq. > Let’s prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq. > They’ve got weapons we can’t see, > And that’s good enough for me, > ‘Cos it’all the proof I need > Bomb Iraq. > If you never were elected, bomb Iraq. > If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq. > If you think Saddam’s gone mad, > With the weapons that he had, > (And he tried to kill your dad), > Bomb Iraq. > If your corporate fraud is growin’, bomb Iraq. > If your ties to it are showin’, bomb Iraq. > If your politics are sleazy, > And hiding that ain’t easy, > And your manhood’s getting queasy, > Bomb Iraq. > Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq. > For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq. > Disagree?

stale crap from the Pappy Dubya years snipped…get some real regurgitated humor, ya maroon! Like this: "A lot of folks are still demanding more evidence before they actually consider Iraq a threat. For example, France wants more evidence. And you know I’m thinking, the last time France wanted more evidence they rolled right through Paris with the German flag." -David Letterman "In California, 50 women protested the impending war with Iraq by lying on the ground naked and spelling out the word peace. Right idea, wrong president." -Jay Leno "They are trying to get that crazy guy Saddam Hussein into exile. So far, the only offer he has is two weeks on Sean Penn’s couch." -David Letterman "President Bush is asking Congress for permission to wage war on Iraq. Some members of Congress are reluctant to go along with the plan so far. All Bush needs to do is remind these guys that, in Iraq, an adulterer gets stoned to death." -Jay Leno "The U.S. and several of our allies have been trying to secretly to convince Saddam Hussein to step down from power and go into exile forever. It’s called ‘Operation Al Gore.’" -Jay Leno "Experts say that Iraq may have nuclear weapons. That’s bad news – they may have a nuclear bomb. Now the good news is that they have to drop it with a camel." -David Letterman "Some Democrats say the estimated $60 billion dollar cost of a war with Iraq could be better spent at home. When he heard that, President Bush agreed and announced plans to bomb Ohio." -Jay Leno "Here’s something dreadful I heard about. You know these suicide bombers. Turns out Saddam Hussein is paying these people. He’s paying people money to blow themselves up. Isn’t that nuts? Isn’t that just bizarre? More bizarre than that, recently he increased their salary. The increase is $10,000 to $25,000 for a suicide bombing. Coincidentally, that’s the same deal I signed up for with CBS." -David Letterman "Saddam Hussein has raised the amount going to suicide bombers from $10 thousand dollars to $25 thousand. What’s next, a health care plan?" -Jay Leno SADDAM DENIES PURSUING ‘NUCULAR’ WEAPONS No Evidence of Nucular Program in Iraq, Strongman Says Responding to last night’s State of the Union Address in which President George W. Bush repeatedly accused him of attempting to acquire "nucular" weapons, President Saddam Hussein of Iraq today categorically denied having a "nucular" weapons program of any kind. "Iraq does not now nor has it ever had a ‘nucular’ weapons program," Saddam said in a terse official statement. "Nor does it have any idea what a ‘nucular’ weapon is." At the White House, press secretary Ari Fleischer accused Saddam of using Mr. Bush’s pronunciation of "nucular" to distract attention from Iraq’s persistent refusal to disarm. "I think the international community knows that when the President says ‘nucular’ he means ‘nuclear,’" Mr. Fleischer said. "We challenge Saddam to prove that he does not have any of the weapons that President Bush may have mispronounced last night." Mr. Bush’s State of the Union Address drew support from an unlikely quarter today, as Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter announced that he "completely agreed" with the President’s pronunciation of the word "nucular." "Back when I was President, I often gave speeches about nucular energy, and everybody always knew what I was talking about," Mr. Carter said. "I think people should back off." In other international pronunciation news, Prime Minister Tony Blair of Britain split with President Bush today over his pronunciation of the words tomato and banana. While Mr. Blair indicated that he and Mr. Bush had "a serious difference of opinion" about how tomato and banana were pronounced, he said it would in no way affect Britain’s support of a U.S.-led attack on Iraq. SADDAM’S LOOK-ALIKES FACE UNCERTAIN FUTURE Few Private Sector Jobs For Iraqi Strongman’s Doppelgangers Of the many people who will be affected by a regime change in Iraq, perhaps none face a more uncertain fate than the look-alikes of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. The look-alikes, believed to be number as many as ten thousand, face dim employment prospects in a post-Saddam Iraq, where opportunities for Hussein doppelgangers are expected to be marginal at best. "We’re looking at a tough, tough road ahead," said Saddam Look-alike #9837, who attended the annual meeting of the Association of Saddam Look-alikes at the Baghdad Hilton over the weekend. "Everybody thinks that when you get plastic surgery to look like Saddam Hussein, life’s a bowl of cherries," #9837 said. "All I can say is, ‘as if! ‘" The meeting of the look-alikes, which featured booths offering information about job retraining and computer skills, drew record numbers of look-alikes this year, forcing police to turn hoses on an overflow crowd of Saddams who tried to crash the gate. While there is some optimism in Iraq that a regime change could bring Western businesses like McDonalds and Starbucks to Baghdad, the look-alikes fear that they will not make it past a first interview at such establishments. "If you ordered a tall decaf mocha latte, would you really want it served to you by someone who looks like Saddam Hussein?" #9837 said. "I’ll be lucky to get a job in the stock room at Foot Locker." Their futures uncertain, many of the look-alikes are now questioning their decision to become Saddam look-alikes in the first place. "When I went for the plastic surgery, I really didn’t think it through," #9837 said. "I just thought it would help me get girls

Long ago, before traps were used, lobsters were fished from shallow waters by spearing or gaffing. Fishermen hunted for lobsters by torch light on calm evenings, spearing them as they crawled around in search of food. Although there was not a commercial market for lobster at this time, some fishermen did sell their catch, which was worth more if it bore no spear marks. Switching to a wire cage to trap the lobsters fixed this problem and brought the fishermen a better price. Not long after the wire cages were brought in, hoop nets became the norm. The rims were made of cast off cart-wheels and netting was stretched over them. These traps were good for shallow water because of the abundance of canner lobsters. (Small lobsters between
