Dubyass: [Who's this guy again...oh yeah that Iraqi guy...no wait he's that Kurdish guy...wait that's Iraqi ain't it? He's one of them Shiitunnis...or no wait it's Shiites...or wait maybe it's Shiaunni..no, now think! Sunni or Shiite or is it Shia...damn I hate this job.] Hey look! Our ties match! Say, I’m having this huge party on Jan. 21, 2009 down in Wacko. We’re goinnna have a couple kegs and a lot of booze and invite some broads. You wanna come? We might even hit some golf balls off the back porch.

“As I was telling your President, in a free Kurdistan a man so skinny would get no (ring tone)…hold on, I gotta take this. (Opens cell phone) Yo! Ya got Jalal … what? No way. Way? Seriously, that’s messed up. He said what again? OK. That’s it. Kill him. Yeah, him too. Blame it on al Qaeda, that always works. Listen, I’m kinda in the middle of something here.
