15. And of course, George W. himself,
the man who invented the "charm offensive" (or was it just the "offensive"?) is on one right now! The RNC web-site even says so.

17. The media whores say it as if...
it is indeed, a point of fact that they are charming too. I heard the chimp and thought, in what way is he charming? And to who? I have a hard time including him in the realm of intelligent life forms!
