Do I really need to go on, heck, read some more for yourself, doubles as entertainment when it dosen't make you cry. I doubt you hear much of them if you watch Fox news or even CNN these days.

Well, I tried, but the constant pop-up ads made it almost impossible to read. Better yet, go here. This is the site you COPIED it from, after all, right down to the pictures and the title at the top of the page.

Creepin' Christ, Jag. If you're gonna steal somebody else's work, at least have the good sense to:

a) copy the pictures, too, instead of just linking back to the images on your victim's server, and
b) strip out the CLASS tags (unless you also stole their stylesheet files).

Sooner or later, somebody who understands HTML will right-click to read your source code, and they're gonna figure out what you've done.

Of course, suggestion B might be beyond the skill of somebody who uses Microsoft Frontpage to create a website:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-au">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>-=Synthetic Soul=-</title>
<base target="_self">
</head>

Dammit. I was kinda impressed that you'd actually bothered to comb through the news and collect all of those "Bushisms". I never pegged you for a thief. *A sad and disappointed Hubris Boy wanders off to make himself a cup of tea.*
