RUSSIAN SHIPPING NEWS PART
1
Scientists aboard a Russian icebreaker discovered
water at the north pole, said to be positive proof that global
warming is taking place. Rush Limbaugh, who denies global warming
as staunchly as he denies the holocaust or women's humanity, was
asked by Untrue News for comment. Said Limbaugh "A RUSSIAN
ship said so...and you believe them? Why don't you boys start
listening to Americans like me, not dirtbag
commie-liberal-democrats like them rooskies." Informed by a
reporter that the word "rooskies" hadn't been used since
Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove" in 1964, Limbaugh
repeated the statement, replacing "them rooskies" with
" you reporters".

three days in the five-foot hole of a partially collapsed
outhouse. Winesett was eventually rescued by his mail carrier.

GOD BLESS AMERICA
At the Democratic
National Convention, Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) salutes the

man waving it.
UP YOURS
In addition to surgery to remove two
malignant melanomas on his left arm and his temple, Sen. John
McCain (R-AZ) will have a polyp removed from his nose. The polyp
was noticed after
Sen. McCain's speech at the Republican
National Convention. News of the polyp sent George W. Bush
scurrying to his proctologist.
