I was calling Robert Fisk Baghdad Bob, but it didn't catch on. He was the parallel to Axis Sally and Tokyo Rose, but did anybody listen to me? Noooooooooooo....
I do remember the day our boys got to downtown Baghdad, and somebody told a soldier that Baghdad Bob (the Iraqi Information Minister) was saying they weren't there, and the soldier nonchalantly said, "Yeah? Well, we can go over and talk to him."

Doesn't seem like a year but one only need to look at GWB's hair to know a strenuous year has passed.

He was unrecognizable after the war without benefit of hair dye, lol. I think I heard he's on Iraqi TV doing commentary. He'd be a perfect replacement for Dan/Tom/Peter.
