Crying Time Part Deux

And today's final Jeopardy category is..."When to Bomb Iraq". Remember your answer must be in the form of a question, players...good luck.

*theme music*

Time's up players, let's see your answers. Anti-war protestor, your answer is "What is No Blood for Oil." I'm sorry, that is incorrect. Bombing Iraq is about weapons of mass destruction & preventing the deaths of innocent victims, not oil.

France, you answered "What is in a year or two after the inspections are completed?" Oh, I'm sorry, that too is incorrect. Inspections have already shown that Iraq has violated the U.N. resolutions against such weapons. There's no need for them to continue.

G.I. Joe, what is your answer?

"What is right after the Super Bowl, Alex"

That is correct, G.I. Joe, when all the troops are in place and before the heat of the summer. And what was your wager? Everything, as usual, which makes you today's winner.

Tune in tomorrow, as G.I. Joe will compete against the Mossad and the Navy SEALs to see who can take out the most terrorists.

Goodbye.

sigh...we've TOLD everyone we're gonna strike. We've sent the troops where they're gonna go. We broadcast on the news where the troops are. And, an astute student of American policy could determine that after the Superbowl is, indeed, when we'll strike. Think we'll surprise anyone?

Yep, cuz I think Saddam doesn't believe we'll do it without UN approval, which he thinks he can prevent.

Wrong on both counts, but hey thanks for playing Sa-dam. We have a little something for you as a parting gift...no peeking, it's a surprise! It's so cool it'll just blow you away.

The best shows are *always* after the Super Bowl.

Hey Robert,

Q: Why did they send the French to Afghanistan?

A: To teach the Taliban how to surrender.

I'm betting it starts during the State of the Union address...

When President Bush arrived at the capitol building tonight he entered the House Chamber, walked to the podium and stood quietly, checking his watch every few seconds.

After a few minutes, he cleared his throat, tapped the mike and said:

"The first bombs in the war for the liberation of Iraq have just been dropped. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to busy for the next few days, so goodnight."
