Where is my 454 ft yacht! If companero Geffen and apparatachik Arianna get yachts the size of, well, CUBA - and I get, well, CUBA. All I can say is "What the F***!" SIGH. Well, one day.

Same goes (re: truth), presumably, for Boettcher, who worked for CNN and NBC, neither of which I rely upon for honest reporting. Even though I generally prefer Fox News, I don't always trust the spin they rely upon since, like the rest of the MSM, they too (aside from their talk-show segments) seemed to ignore news stories about Iraq. Ultimately, I think that people just want to be told the truth, and are happy to find it wherever it surfaces.
