The Headline That Didn't Pay Off

Posted by Hubris

Actually, that describes most of my posts. In this case, however, I'm referring to a headline from MSNBC:

rumsfeld.jpg

"Rumsfeld spars with Chinese military officers." If this were a just world, I would have clicked over to find a story about Rumsfeld's tour-gone-wrong of a Chinese military facility. He would have demanded fuller disclosure regarding Chinese military spending, and when his inscrutable host said "We are sorry, but under the circumstances..." Rumsfeld would have yelled, "Circumstances hell! I make circumstances!" And then he would have ripped off his suit jacket and shirt and revealed a physique that rivals Matt Furey's just before the bloody sparring began.

Fucking news cycle.

Why are you posting something so obviously photoshopped (the last one)?

On second thought-they all look photoshopped

I received similar treatment when I publicized a secret Rumsfeld memo.

The first and best in this genre, Rumsfeld Fighting Technique, is from Feb 04.

"You may have defeated my Southern Hook Palm technique, but can you defeat the 1000 styles of Rumsfeld?"
