[ ... Soaprah (noun) 1) An overwrought, emotional response to some news item or event. 2) A news item that garners far more attention than it really deserves.
"Did you hear about Dick Cheney's accident...what a 'Soaprah'...]

Fantastic Definition. LOL!!

This could extend my fame account to ... er ... maybe 30 seconds. Whooh! Hooh!

Iran is threatening to nuke the world
Hamas has been elected to govern the Palestinians
Illegal immigration threatens the fabric of America
We are fighting a War on Terror, one that threatens to explode into something much bigger
Muslims are burning down half of Europe because of a cartoon.
Bob Woodruff is maimed by a deliberately planted IED by those whom the media call 'insurgents'.

Dick Cheney accidentally shoots hunting buddy, who will recover it seems.

The news media deems which of the above to be most newworthy?.......why, the one they have the audacity in which to demand an immediate notification of...as if they are some oversight committee.

Guess what, media types. Your boy Bob Woodruff wasn't given any notification before he nearly had his head blown off.........and there is something far more sinister there.

Harry Whittington, 78, was "alert and doing fine" after Cheney sprayed him with shotgun pellets

I like the "Rambo" imagery being created here.

Oooh, how's this:

Harry Whittington, 78, was "alert and doing fine" after Cheney sprayed him hosed him down with shotgun pellets

As much as I hate to admit it, I am dating a leftie. She works as a news producer and their jokes today were along the line of 'Oh, Cheney should take Bush hunting!' I then explained that Cheney would then become president for the rest of Bush's term and to be careful what she wishes for. She didn't say another word....

Real funny. Suggest to her for me that she do a cover story in Takrit.

You have a gift. How did you come up with that so quickly?
Don't mind me I have satirical nomenclature envy.

CNN?

Did we ever figure out which reporterette was the one that actually had the gall to ask for Cheney's resignation at the White House press briefing today? I don't want to have to plow back through 1000 posts to find out.

Still think a steering wheel in Teddys hands is far more dangerous than a shotgun in the Veeps.

Gore or Clinton might have fired second bullets to make sure he was dead.

Thanks for reposting that Cheney pix. Ok, maybe it's not in the greatest taste right now, but I had it as wall paper for a long time, and lost it during a hubby upgrade. Great to have it again, although I guess I might not be putting it up at the office just yet!

Why couldn't Dick accidently bomb Tehran?

Imagine a press conference in which W says "....in news I'm sure will please my opponents, my schedule for next week includes quail hunting with the VP."

It'd be sooooo perfect.

from Letterman: Top 10 list was devoted to "Dick Cheney's excuses," which included that he "thought the guy was trying to go gay cowboy on me."
