10. I've never known a Democrat or Libertarian to have spelling

and grammar this execrable. The fastest way to find writing this pathetic is to click into a right-wing site. or sight, as they say.

I agree. It is obvious.

4. No, they really did flush the Koran at Gitmo. It's not Newsweek

carrying "fake stories".

6. Once again my mouth drops open

I'm not surprised it was a plant, but you know, even if it wasn't, I see how the Bushees will see it as a victory to get what they want.
I hate to think how much worse things can get in the good ol USA!
Damn BUSH!

9. Nice try.

But that is not News, nor is it particularly likely to be true.

12. This is NOT Latest Breaking News.

Nice try. Who the hell wrote this some second-grader? What a fricking joke! :eyes:

14. It is likely that the only thing "fake" about the

Koran/toilet story is that the Guantanamo interrogators didn't literally "flush the Koran down the toilet." Most copies are too big and non-soluble for that. When they threw the Koran in the toilet and hit "flush" the book probably just swirled round and round--

so--it didn't really get flushed down the toilet.

"Youb" got to be pretty ill-informed to believe that neo-cons planted the story to bring on a "marjor Jihad."
