| Bush’s cat India gets Indians enraged This reminds me somehow of one of those science-fiction stories where the hero goes to sleep for a long time, then awakens to somehow find himself in a mad world where everyone else is either crazy or stupid or both. Cyril Kornbluth’s The Marching Morons comes especially to mind. By Indo-Asian News Service Thiruvananthapuram, July 2 (IANS) Angry youths in this Kerala capital Friday burnt an effigy of US President George W. Bush, not because they are anti-American but because he has named his cat India. They can retaliate by naming a local cow "America." We wouldn’t send a Delta hit squad after them, I promise. Members of the citizens group Prathikarana Vedi assembled before the Kerala assembly (a good place to assemble, I’d say) saying that Bush calling his cat India was an insult to the country. While the foolish antics of Prathikarana Vedi (Hindi for "too much time on our hands"?) probably instill nothing but pride in the hearts of sober Indians. " My dog’s full name is Roswell the Atomic Poodle. Sheesh, I hope the residents of that esteemed New Mexico community don’t consider it an insult. I would really be in trouble if nuclear weapons workers from Sandia National Laboratory also decide to take offense. Ros is really a wonder-dog, though getting a bit frail at age 13. "He should make amends," Latheef added. You might think that eradicating the Taliban terror-sanctuary would count for something with these folks. They obviously read the papers and watch the news or they wouldn’t know about Bush’s cat. The members of the group walked to the front gate of the assembly building but were stopped by police. After a brief speech and some slogans, the members burnt an effigy of the US president. I wonder if Al-Jazeerah has picked this up? Burning them |

| #1 Did it ever occur to these idiots that the cat might be named after the ink, not the country? Of course not; the whole world obviously revolves around them. These clowns have far too much time on their hands. Wotta buncha losers. |
