4. Check this out...
It was unclear whether Bush, riding in a black Suburban with tinted windows, saw the demonstrators.

What is he? Frickin' blind?

5. Well, there were at least 100 of us on Saturday, when Yahoo claimed 70.
But I guess they've learned since the importance of more-grandly understating crowd sizes.
