    Another "Bad Apple"?

    How many bad apples does that make on Bush's watch so far???

    And as ever, the proof is in the pudding: how many of these "bad apples" have ever been held accountable?

    If NBC does not support this sleaze, then they should come out and slap it down fast.

    The fact that they do not come out and slap it down PROVES that they support it.

    QED.

    Same with Bush and his "bad intelligence" on WMDs, or his "bad apples" at Abu Ghraib, etc etc. Nobody has ever been held accountable because it was all sanctioned at the top level.

    The proof is in the pudding, and the rotting, stinking, 8-years-old putrid pile of pudding is totally inedible because of all the bad apples in the mix.
