I Have This Rock That Keeps Away Tigers

So, the current President (the one at a time that we have) is taking his victory (?) lap around the country, and he has some doozies to tell. Evidently, since there have been no terrorist attacks on the country since September 11th, 2001, Junior Bush has done a phenomenal job of protecting our country.

He cites several examples of the attacks he has thwarted – an supposed attack on JFK Airport’s fuel supply – since determined to be a minimal threat – a supposed plot to bring down the Library Tower in LA (he called it the Liberty Tower, but you know he loves those patriotic names) and an attack on the Sears Tower in Chicago of which the alleged plotters have been acquitted.



I’m reminded of an episode of the Simpsons...

Homer: Not a bear in sight. The Bear Patrol must be working like a
charm.
Lisa: That's spacious reasoning, Dad.
Homer: Thank you, dear.
Lisa: By your logic I could claim that this rock keeps tigers away.
Homer: Oh, how does it work?
Lisa: It doesn't work.
Homer: Uh-huh.
Lisa: It's just a stupid rock.
Homer: Uh-huh.
Lisa: But I don't see any tigers around, do you?
Homer: Lisa, I want to buy your rock.

Hell, if I worked for Haliburton I could sell the government this rock for millions of dollars!
