Middle East
During a press conference reporters asked Bush who had won in the Middle East after the cease-fire. The president responded that he had talked to the prime minister of Israel and that they were happy with the deal but that he didn’t know what Hezbollah members thought about it because he had not talked to Lamont.

Oil prices fell Tuesday as the market responded to a cease-fire in the Middle East. After hearing the news Dick Cheney packed his hunting gear and headed for Lebanon.

After the cease-fire in Lebanon, Israelis as well as Hezbollah said they felt victorious. The Palestinians returning to their bombed houses? Not so much

Hezbollah members gathered in the streets of Lebanon to celebrate. Reporters were not sure weather they were celebrating the cease-fire or the Lamont victory in the Connecticut primaries

Terror attacks
Right media pundits were invigorated and really eager to tell their listeners that British authorities had foiled a terrorist plot. They were so excited that Rush Limbaugh didn’t even need to take Viagra that day.

As a way to make up for the troubles of the new ban on water and the long checking lines, some airlines are giving their passengers aboard an unlimited supply of salty peanuts. The problem is they sell the bottle of water for $200 bucks.

Democrats are saying that the new restrictions to board planes are being used by Republicans to make people afraid. Republicans denied that and said that the fact that people have to get rid of shampoos, hair gels, make up, or spray before they board the plane is not being used for this administration to institute fear but to know who is gay and who’s not.

Bush
During a press conference, President Bush insisted that his administration would stay the course in Iraq, quite ironical for someone that had a hard time to stay in any course in school for more than 10 minutes
