Bush Fails to Wear Hair Net While Serving Food in Baghdad




BAGHDAD — A growing controversy grew as the soldiers from the First Armored Division and the 82nd Airborne came down from the high they experienced during President Bush's surprise visit to Baghdad.

It emerged that President Bush had not worn a hair net while he served food to the troops. Army regulations require that army food servers were a hair net. As a result, there was serious fall out from the breach of protocol, namely his hair falling into the food.

"I found a hair in my dinner," said one soldier. "It was gray, just like the President's. It was disgusting."

"I found one too," said a female soldier. "It put me off my meal, which I was looking forward to."

"By not wearing a hair net, he spoiled Thanksgiving dinner," said a third soldier. "It would have been better if he hadn't come at all, and if Paul Bremer had read his message instead."

One food server at the dinner expressed his feelings about the incident. "He undermined our professionalism as food servers," he said. "Every day for thirteen months we've been here, doing our job, serving up food and taking fire from the real soldiers. But we've been wearing our hair nets. By coming here and interrupting his own Thanksgiving, which he could have had in Crawford, he disrespected us."

The Democratic candidates for President were reluctant to criticize the President for his trip, until they heard about the hair net incident.

"He's the Commander in Chief and yet he broke army rules, "said Howard Dean. "He should be impeached."

"I wish I'd said that," said John Kerry.

"I've commanded troops in mess halls," said Wesley Clark. "My hair doesn't fall out as much as the President's. I'm the only one who can go follicle to follicle with the President."

Its a JOKE!

But it is getting harder and harder to distinguish fact from fiction these days. The piece is funny because it's almost plausible.

"Oh, shut up Wesley. I am the only candidate with serious hair."

However serious this is! It was not as serious GW's dangling participle during his 2003 State of the Union Speech re $oddomite and Iraq.

No, that's their nature. There goal is to make everyone equaly miserable(except for a handfull that will be the leadership who won't as much as smile in public). A happy person is problem. It is too unfare to those strugling with life's issues, so those who have managed their lives must be brought down instead of helping those with problems find their way out.

It's just an alternate reality.
They think they are the normal ones. They are like people on a ship who think it is those on shore who are moving away.

NYT: "No hairnet? THAT'S JUST NOT KOSHER."

Joe Lieberman - "Kosher? I am all about Kosher! Pick me pick me! Besides if you elect a president who is follicly challenged, like I am, then this would not be a problem. Plus, I look mighty spiffy in a hair net, a Kosher hairnet at that!"
