1. "Don't worry, I am perfectly safe and enjoying another vacation" - Commander AWOL Bush

"I understand that most of you little people, formerly known as citizens of the USA, are deeply concerned about the welfare of me and my fellow republicon homelander chickenhawks. But let me assure you that we are FAR FAR AWAY from the crusade war zones we have established with our clever WMD, um, stories and stuff, and we are kicking back on the golf course. So sit down, shut up, know that all is well.

"Oooops, almost forgot my republicon homelander propaganda talking point: 'too bad and stuff about all the dead people. But on the bright side, oil & munitions profits are WAY UP. Smirk."
