8. We have to listen to this crap in Hong Kong too.
Twice an hour this morning on the government radio station I had to listen to the newsreader breathlessly announce the idiot's speech at the swearing-in ceremony.

Here was their top world news headline:

Bush says Bin Laden threat is America's top priority

Then the breathless report: "President Bush says America's greatest challenge is stopping the terrorist leader Osama bin Laden from attacking the country again."

Then 30 seconds of the moron's speech to try to heighten the fear to the max. I felt like smashing the radio the third time. Cleverly I turned it off instead.

The whole freakin world is taken in by this ridiculous propaganda.
