FOXNews.com - Politics News - Bush: Decisions This Year Will Determine the Future of the U.S.
G.W. Bush praises American economic leadership, criticizes our “addiction” to oil, defends the NSA, and insists that “we are winning” against terrorism and “radical Islam”, which he continues to describe as a "perversion" of his other favorite religion.

FOXNews.com [AP] - U.S. & World News - WHO: Human Bird Flu Cases Hit 160

or
German_engineering_versus_Arab_technology.wm
Ok, it is, but you didn’t hear it from me. This seems to have been intended as a actual commercial, not aired because of some perceived insensitivity.
