here, I can't answer them. Following Mick and almost fitting the template:
Cant issuer: Mr. George Walker Bush.
Of course it is very likely that the original phrase refers to George
Bush, but it seems that using his full name leads into a dead end. And
it is also likely that the event that inspired Mo had to do with Bush's
2007 State of the Union Address a few days earlier. But neither the
summary on wikipedia, nor the text of the speech itself made it obvious
to me what would have given Al Gore a reason to be so unhappy.
Then I tried to figure out what could be the first word in the template:
can't, ain't, isn't, won't, let's? Using that approach, my "best" finds
were these:
Can't rulers go skewer "Mirage" Bush?
Won't laughs be saucer merger risk?
It could also be any three-letter word with an 's, including she's,
who's, man's, one's. I chose one promising word and stuck with it:
GWB's mother is unsure: larger cake?
GWB's remark on secure trials - huge!
GWB's remark on Hitler scares EUUG.
But although EUUG is an existing acronym (for the European Unix User's
Group), I'm pretty sure that this is not the answer, either. :-)
At this poin't, I'm willing to give up. Could we just ask Maurice?
