In the wake of the Iraqi constitutional referendum, United States President George Bush congratulates Sunni leader Abu ben-Bob for his opposition to the proposed new pathway to democracy in the war-torn country, by voting "NO" on the constitutional draft.

"At least we got them involved," the President stated. "They may be a stubborn bunch, but they turned out this time, purple fingers and all. They didn't blow too much stuff up, and we'll give them some of those no-bid Halliburton contracts if they continue to behave."

"As soon as they get the hell out of here, we can get back to unrestricted tribal warfare," Mr. ben-Bob was quoted as saying. "We'll continue to sell them oil for four dollars a barrel, and the capitalists can gouge what they want. I want to kill some Baathists and Kurds. By the way, Saddam, do you have a fork handy? Stick it in...you're done!"
