But I thought there was no connection between Iraq and 9/11…?
The perfect gift idea, albeit a mite late, from Potfry:
Are you freakishly obsessed with the daily casualty count in Iraq? Do you find yourself disappointed when a day or two goes by and no American soldiers die? Have you ever been at a cocktail party and said, “How can we be so damn jovial when George Bush is responsible for a death toll in Iraq that is approaching one-tenth the total of British dead in the Second Boer War?”
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need the new Associated Press Pocket Iraq Casualty Counter! Now the information you need to make bizarre, extraneous points about the Iraqi War is at your fingertips, 24 hours a day! The Pocket Casualty Counter uses satellite technology to wirelessly provide instant updates on casualties, as they happen. And the Pocket Casualty Counter links the death toll with a historical database to provide you with the factual ammunition you need to battle those crazy neo-cons, on the go! So you’ll be able to say, “I hate to be the one to tell you this, but George Bush has now murdered 10 times the number of people who are eaten alive in an average decade by the Spotted Siberian Tiger.” Imagine the look of shock on their Christian fundamentalist faces!
Still not convinced?
Well, dang it, how could you not be? But wait, there’s more!
Throw in an impeachment countdown calendar and I’m all yours.

You can see them with their symbol of the ultimate blood-sucking capitalist robber-baron in their grubby little weasel paws, but instead of amalgamated biscuits coming out it iwll have the list they crave. They may even sit around it as the tape plays out in their hands, never venturing into the world of daylight again, as their dreams continue to pour forth.
If we work this right we (a) get their money; (b) get them out of public; and (c) we can feed them false information over it so that when they do venture amongst the humans, they'll sound even barmier than usual.
I know, impossible, but it is an idea.
