Interesting Monstah has been on the bogus "5 Scary Middle Eastern Guys" story since the beginning.

Is it okay to be a bit outraged now? Let's think about what's happened. The administration has apparently made up this story. There is no evidence it happened. No evidence of 5 guys going to Canada. No evidence of 5 guys coming over the Canadian border. No evidence that the 5 guys are connected to each other or terrorism. They mysterious gentlemen are alternatively described as "Arab" or "Middle Eastern" even though one of the photos was of a Pakistani guy who is currently in Pakistan, and all the names appeared to be Pakastani. Bush announced that he personally sent the FBI on a nationwide manhunt for these guys, which one newspaper article described as a 'posse,' and authorities asked the public to help. The public, of course, dutifully responded to his call by calling the police on random people.

Can we count the number of ways this is sick disgusting shit?
