Rudy and the Clones. I'm kinda busy here, so here are two stories for you. First, Rudy Giuliani said on the Today Show this morning regarding al QaQaa:

The president was cautious the president was prudent the president did what a commander in chief should do. No matter how you try to blame it on the president the actual responsibility for it really would be for the troops that were there. Did they search carefully enough? Didn't they search carefully enough?

Yeah, that's right. He blamed the troops. Add to that Bush deflecting Kerry's criticism by saying Kerry was criticizing the troops, and we really do have the "Blame American Troops First" crowd. Nice.

Second, it appears that Bushco will lie about ANYTHING. In one of their last commercials, aptly titled "Whatever It Takes" they have photoshopped a smaller crowd of troops in order to turn it into a larger one. See the evidence here. Lies!!! Maybe that's their plan for troop levels in Iraq, just photoshop a couple of extra divisions. Or even better, just photoshop it such that all the dangerous areas are replaced with teddy bears, rainbows, and unicorns.

Reminds me of this article from The Onion where Bush erases the deficit by crossing it out with a black Sharpie pen.

Oh, and I almost forgot...this is awesome. Bush flipping the bird. No photoshopping there.
