#1 "People are being killed and you are riding your bicycle like a child."

"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries! Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"

"Uh, Mr. Gore, sir, uh . . . the Imam would like his megaphone back."

#2 I'm amused that it was an IRNA stringer who was the witness for the militia's truce-breaking. Talk about "testimony against interest"!

#3 A part of me wishes that Sadr breaks this ceasefire so we can go in and finish this punk once and for all...Actually, all of me wishes this were the case.

Thousands of supporters come out??? What? WTF were these guys last week during all those firefights?

#4 I think most of those 'supporters' were celebrating and end to the siege not Tater head. I agree RM lets got drag tater head out by his beard, make him wear womens panties, and then make him the bottom person on the naked pyramid. Also lets spread a rumor that his mom ate BLTs for lunch!

#5 They say that language mirrors a people's thought processes. If so, what do the childish bombastic non sequiturs uttered from every mosque on every Friday say about these guys? As Bugs Bunny would say, "What a bunch of maroons!" (The Looney Tunes descriptor is appropriate.)
