Birthplace of George W. Bush
Status: Hoax
The picture of this Connecticut highway sign has been circulating for quite a while, and it's obviously photoshopped (Snopes has a picture of the non-photoshopped version, which lacks the phrases "Birthplace of George W. Bush" and "We apologize"... though their non-photoshopped version actually kind of looks like it's been photoshopped). But apparently there really are signs outside of New Haven, Connecticut welcoming people to New Haven "The birthplace of President George W. Bush '68." George W was born there in 1946, while his father was attending graduate school there. I'm surprised no one has edited these signs to add a "We Apologize." (Maybe they have and I haven't heard about it.) Incidentally, New Haven's other claim to fame is that it used to be the oyster capital of the United States.Posted By: Alex | Date: Tue Dec 06, 2005 | Permalink |

America is not the only place in the world to be blessed by a god (if one existed)
The President is advised, but makes the final decision. If a company goes bust, you don't jail the janitor.
Irak was about oil, and the greed of The West, where I was born. Once every now and then one has to choose between patriotism and altruism.
If you believe in your hypothetical god, where does he say that violence is allowed, even as self-protection? Your commandments say the contrary.
