Satire from the morning update:
And driving the point home yesterday, Rush's guys produced a fantastic piece illustrating the Great Presidential War Announcements in U.S. History (the audible impact is so much more, and I will post it once released!):
RUSH: Here's a sampling of American presidents soberly informing and explaining to the American people how and why they have decided to send Americans into harm's way.
ROOSEVELT: December 7th, 1941, a date which will live in infamy.
REAGAN: At seven o'clock this evening Eastern Time air and naval forces of the United States launched a series of strikes against the headquarters, terrorist facilities, and military assets that support Moammar Khadafy's subversive activities.
BUSH 41: Just two hours ago allied air forces began an attack on military targets in Iraq and Kuwait.
CLINTON: Our mission will be limited, focused, and under the command of an American general.
BUSH 43: My fellow citizens, at this hour, American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people, and to defend the world from grave danger.
OBAMA: Hello, Rio de Janeiro! Alo! Cidade! Maravilhoso!
RUSH: American presidential war announcements, great American presidential war announcements in American history. (interruption) What was that? That was cold? No, no. Here, Ed, play it again. I realize that snuck up on people.
ROOSEVELT: December 7th, 1941, a date which will live in infamy.
REAGAN: At seven o'clock this evening Eastern Time air and naval forces of the United States launched a series of strikes against the headquarters, terrorist facilities, and military assets that support Moammar Khadafy's subversive activities.
