CNN Geeks Make Short-Lived Bush Joke
Edited on Fri Sep-01-06 10:41 AM by Bleachers7
This is pretty funny. CNN names a story "Bush 3.0 released patch for Iraq war." It must be a big party at CNN these days. :party:

2. If news was funny more people might pay attention.

5. Yep, she read the Top 10 list

Saw it last night. It was pretty funny, and she was a very good sport about it.

Highlights:

5. "I was set up by those bastards at Fox News."

4. "Like you've never gone to the bathroom and had it broadcast on national television?"

1. "You have to admit it made the speech a lot more interesting!"

And Newsbusters is nothing but a bunch of whining crybabies. Fuck 'em.

3. On that link
it reverts to a corner picture with the statement :

"President Bush tells a veterans group Thursday that the United States is in a struggle against a single ideological movement that opposes freedom."

The ideological movement of course being the neocons.

11. Whoever figured out the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH should have
Edited on Sat Sep-02-06 05:01 PM by Radio_Lady
a special place in HELL! Windows Explorer has revised the blue screen -- but is still on my shit list for the REPORT ERROR screen. Sorry I don't have a screen capture, but whenever it see it -- I'm wondering -- WHEN will Microsoft DO something about the errors I have reported?

Half-past-two, next never?
