4. So how will George Bush react THIS time?

Will he sit on his butt reading a story about a pet goat before he runs away to Nebraska? Will he give us more Trifecta jokes?

"The warning came despite White House assurances that many of al Qaeda's operations have been disrupted and that the occupation of Iraq (news - web sites) was making the world safer."

The mainstream news media is starting to notice.
