    The original story is so flimsy (an unknown Russian newspaper quoting an unknown Iraqi blog) that I never took it seriously. The Den Beste Rule on Breaking News still holds true.

    Abu? No, Abu can’t come to the phone right now. [smack]

    He’s… er… taking a shower. [wack]

    Oh, he takes long showers. [jolt]

    I’ll tell him ya called. [gouge] Yeah, he’ll get back to ya sometime. [groan]

    I question the timing of the initial reports and the denials.

    Like McGehee said. Isn’t the timing of this very convenient and suspicious?
