Thanks Alas and is it not a shame that a "disclaimer" has to be inserted.

###### Associated Press dissociated from Reality - A man who was persecuted under Taliban rule in Afghanistan sends the fruit of his year's worth of labor thro' a soldier(special Rug with Jesus & President's portrait) as a gift to President Bush for helping to liberate him from that intolerant Islamic regime.

###### Wonders never cease - NPR correspondent & FNS panelist Juan Williams' son Tony Williams is a Republican(!).
