You 'ed better all keep your fingers crossed we don't wake up to gw's face on a dollar bill.

I heard Gen. Grant on NPR this morning, agreeing with Gen. Washington.

Said Grant, "Fetch the president a whisky! Only the delirium tremens could make a man this moody and fearful."

I like the dig at the end: "remove her from the mantle of King George." That's-a-goooood!

Wow, good one, Neophile, thanks I needed this this morning. Better than a cup of coffee. The onion did a great job on this one.

I liked this story even though The Onion has it slightly wrong. George Washington did not break a 211 year media silence as evidenced by the recently discovered Roosevelt Papers. This was Washington's dissertation about FDR and how he abused the unwritten rule that was written by Washington himself - No man shall serve more than two terms as President of these United States. Washington further explained: "We created this country to flee the dictatorial abuse that any king eventually embraces. This FDR fellow, in a time of war, has taken advantage of the poor, downtrodden and huddled masses to form a less perfect union. He has promoted a socialist ideal and fear itself is his weapon. If he lives through this fourth term, I anticipate that he will win a fifth term by showing everyone what is really under that blanket on his lap."

Neo, good one LMAO!

Sun Tszu was interviewed for this story but when asked about the Bush Battle Plan in Iraq severely injured his side laughing hysterically and was removed to the local hospital.

Washington gave a battlefield speech specifically condemning torture as something Americans shouldn't do.

Bush changed the laws, to torture American citizens for suspicion.

Washington would pistol-whip Bush in a heartbeat.

Where's "Samantha Stevens" when you need her to conjure up George Washington again?

He must have forgotten how they tried to castrate him. Of his handling of the Revolutionary War. It's amazing what a person will forget in 211 years. Ah yes History.
