Celebrating With Yellow Cake on Bush's Birthday

By John Lillpop

George W. Bush celebrated his final birthday in the White House with a flourish of redemptive news from Iraq: Because the "surge" is working so marvelously, Coalition forces have just about finished the banishment of Al-Qaeda back to their caves of origin, horns firmly tucked between their legs.

It gets even better! Despite the mockery and "Bush Lied" mantra of demented leftists, it turns out that Iraq did have enormous stockpiles of yellow cake.

This news is absolutely spectacular because it sends to the toilet claims made by Joe Wilson, Valerie Phlame, and other lefty screwballs that would have the world believe that Saddam Hussein was a misunderstood Red Cross volunteer victimized by an out-of-control Texan with a drink problem.

Although there is no "reliable source" to quote on the yellow cake shocker, there is the Associated Press which, despite being a wing of the DNC, nevertheless reported the following:

"The last major remnant of Saddam Hussein's nuclear program - a huge stockpile of concentrated natural uranium - reached a Canadian port Saturday to complete a secret U.S. operation that included a two-week airlift from Baghdad and a ship voyage crossing two oceans.

"The removal of 550 metric tons of "yellow cake" - the seed material for higher-grade nuclear enrichment - was a significant step toward closing the books on Saddam's nuclear legacy. It also brought relief to U.S. and Iraqi authorities who had worried the cache would reach insurgents or smugglers crossing to Iran to aid its nuclear ambitions."

Seattle PI:

How about that as a fitting gift for a sixty-two year old geezer with an IQ slightly below that of radioactive dust?

Happy Birthday, W!
