ROFL! Thanks for posting that. I haven't seen anything that inspired from the Onion since the September 11th "Holy Fucking Shit" edition.

I loved this:

There's no reason this Iraq thing can't be a franchise for us like those wars with Germany or the Communists used to be," Rumsfeld said. "The public loves it, the soldiers love it, the media love it. And even if the U.S. wins at the end of the second one, there are still plenty of possibilities for a third: Saddam could be destroyed, only to be replaced by an even greater evil. Then, of course, there's the prequel set in the Stone Age, the era we bomb Iraq back to at the end of the third one. As far as we're concerned, this thing is just getting started."

I think the Onion has explained Bush's 'strategy'
You would. Fortunately you do not get to vote in our elections, so your opinion doesn't matter.

But, if you wish, to help you understand our viewpoint, we might be able to arrange to have some fully fueled jets slammed into, say, Parliament.

Would that help?
