George Bush single handedly captured bin laden too...



Floops quesedillas zijn te vergelijken met het likken van fatsige Albert's aars nadat hij een fles laxeermiddel heeft leeggedronken.

"But it raises another question.  Professional journalists are always sniffing at the Internet's amateurs, and claiming that their superior fact-checking and editorial resources produce a better product.  Yet, once again, they've fallen for an obvious fraud." 

It always makes me sick to see a group of journalists behaving like a bunch of kindergarteners when trying to get a story. I'm sure everyone has seen examples of this behavior. Just one more reason I'm glad I don't have cable these days. I get all my news off of the internet.

No. It's "remember the Alamo," as in:

Oh. That would have been my third guess. My second was "Royal Tornado Association."
