This was the photo that popped up in a Google news search for the newly-announced iPhone earlier today. As you can see, it’s a classic image from the hilarious trial of Saddam Hussein. Apple quickly spun into damage control mode, inviting “singer” John Mayer onstage to assure the crowd of Apple’s patriotism and give the single douchiest quote of the year (so far): MORE »

Those wacky pranksters at Whitehouse.org are holding a contest — draw the Saddam Hussein hanging and win your very own executioner’s… ski mask. We gotta say, in an execution that was already kinda classless, the ski masks were pretty much the tackiest bit. Hangmen are supposed to wear simple-but-sophisticated black hoods made of silk or leather — they’re not supposed to look like snowmobilers or Dick Cheney visiting Auschwitz. MORE »

The Aryan Conspiracy against America’s first half-black president continues, as proven by this actual CNN screen capture. Also, we’re supposed to believe anybody at CNN cares about “Obama bin Laden” in 2007. Not even Bush pretends to act like Bin Laden is a big scary bogeyman these days! MORE »

At 10 p.m. EST, we will finally win the Iraq War. Expect the troops home in time to enjoy one last cigarette in the Black Cat’s Red Room. Saddam Hussein will be executed no later than 10, unless he isn’t. MORE »

New York Times: MORE »

George W. lost the popular vote in 2000 and won by a slim 2% in 2004, but the least-loved president has finally achieved the overwhelming victory he always wanted — one in four Americans chose him as the No. 1 villain in the whole world! Bush totally beat also-ran villains such as Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. MORE »

Happy Wednesday! One of your editors is stuck in airport layover hell, the other is presumed dead, or possibly in Reno.
