George W. Bush, President of the United States
1) given documents he thought were true
2) failed to thoroughly investigate the facts
3) reported documents to the American people as true to make his case
4) when confronted with the facts: continued to report untruth and stonewalled an investigation
5) number of Americans dead: 1100
6) remedy: should be given four more years as President of the United States

How's that, again?

Dan Rather

I don't think he should be fired. If he does it again, then they should throw his ass out so fast that there are grossly measurable relativistic effects. Now he's been burned once, and he'll be more careful.

As for President Bush? "NO! MORE! YEARS!"
