    I just heard some sad news on talk radio. President George Bush Jr, was found dead in his presidential room this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his chemical weapons attacks and pre-recorded propoganda messages, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an Israeli icon.
