Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
by Stephen Hewitt, 25 January 2003- George Bush junior, "President"* of the United States, 21 November 2001 http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/11/20011121-3.html"We fight the terrorists and we fight all of those who give them aid. America has a message for the nations of the world: If you harbor terrorists, you are terrorists. (Applause.) If you train or arm a terrorist, you are a terrorist. (Applause.) If you feed a terrorist or fund a terrorist, you're a terrorist, and you will be held accountable by the United States and our friends. (Applause.)"
- Alice Through the Looking Glass, Lewis Carroll"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be Master - that's all."
