Adenews shocked at US attack plans

Adenews executives have expressed outrage at reports President Bush intended to bomb the offices of the online news information update service 18 months ago and was only stopped by the intervention of Tony Blair.
"A valuable set of antique preserves and some expensive computer equipment is housed in those offices," said Mr Gramp E Ullman, proprietor of Man Mountain Hyperpublishing, the organisation responsible for Adenews. "What is even more worrying, I sometimes visit that office myself."
It is thought that Mr Blair intervened when Mr Bush failed to guarantee not wiping out half of Worthing High Street. "This is a very tricky target for precision bombing," said Gatel N Gunn, defence analyst with June's Fence Weekly. "It has a small footprint and because it is located above a chip shop, there is uncertainty about what the hot fat would do under a laser guided bombing scenario. Also the blast may have been deflected into nearby stockpiles of marmalade causing untold damage."
At the beginning of the War on Stupidity Mr Bush said: "You are either with us or against us." It is thought that some Adenews editorial material has been interpreted in Washington as being anti-US and that is why it became a target. "Comments Adenews made like 'that President Bush is an idiot' highlit our weaknesses to the enemy in a time of war," said a White House spokesman. "We cannot tolerate this kind of statement when we are fighting for freedom."
Mr Horse McTomahawk, Editor of Adenews commented: "We are committed to remaining an independent voice dedicated to representing the views of a section of the community. By the way, that President Bush is doing an awfully good job of running things, isn't he?"
