Part of my own personal IT Crowd soundtrack, in that I heard it most days on the radio on my way back from our location shoot.

Bush is no longer 'The Decider'. Now he's The Commander Guy.

Ahhhhhh-hahahahahahahahahahahahahhaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

"Thirdly, back to your question. You thought I was kind of doing one of these -- (laughter) -- Washington, D.C. dodges. (Laughter.) I talk to a lot of families who have got a loved one in Iraq or Afghanistan, or anywhere else in this global war on terror, and they are in constant communication with their loved one. That's amazing, isn't it. You've got a kid in Iraq who is emailing mom daily, talking about the realities of what he or she sees. Information is moving -- you know, nightly news is one way, of course, but it's also moving through the blogosphere and through the Internets. It's amazing how many emails I see from people that are writing in what they think and what they hear."

My other favourite thing about this quote is the idea that soldiers on the ground IN IRAQ are writing letters to their Moms that "talk about the realities of what he or she sees". Right, because that's what we all like to do in letters to our mothers. We want to give them the full, unvarnished truth because we enjoy scaring the fucking shit out of them. I bet you a million dollars that the only Army letters Cheney allows Bush to see are the letters to the mothers.

Fun competition! Write a short version of the kind of letter Bush is talking about. Or even just a line from it.("Mom! Great news! They're extending my tour by a month!")

Winner gets a mention in the commentary of the DVD of 'It Crowd' series 2. The mention will be in the manner of my choosing; it won't be anything bad but it won't be the truth.

Don't just fire off the first thing that enters your head! Shape it, baby!

If the test of a good parody is that it works even if the viewer is unfamiliar with the source material (I've never seen 'The OC'), then this is a very good parody.
