Tiger,

Would you prefer if the reporter said "Bush, trying not to lie..." in the 
article?  After all, Bush said he lied about Rumsfeld keeping his job one 
week before the election.

Hey, how's your article about busboys coming?  Hurry up, it's not going to 
write itself.

Going to get it done before you go to Iraq as a mercenary?  Lots of work 
there for a tough war supporter like you.  That's your plan, right Tiger?

Sunil
