Captive U.S. Soldier Doll Rescued by Bush Doll
by Scott Ott

(2005-02-01) -- Just hours after Islamic militants in Iraq threatened
to behead a kidnapped U.S. soldier doll, the camouflaged action figure
was rescued in a daring nighttime operation by a toy George W. Bush
action figure.

Bush action figure, tired, but uninjured after daring rescue
The nine-inch-tall replica of the president left Andrews Air Force
Base in a scale model of Air Force One within minutes after the
Pentagon learned of the kidnapping from a picture on an Islamic website.

The top-secret flight was reminiscent of the life-size president's
Thanksgiving visit to Baghdad in 2003. During the long trip, the
presidential doll was programmed to say intimidating things in Arabic,
and reportedly spent several hours practicing his kung-fu grip.

Even as the mission was secretly under way, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy,
D-MA, went before the Senate to call for the immediate withdrawal of
12,000 military action figures from Iraq.

Upon hearing of the Bush doll's successful mission, Sen. John Kerry,
D-MA, warned against "overhyping" the significance of the apparently
heroic deed.
