Retirement Island here we come!

Tiny Indian Ocean atoll, Diego Rivera, recently in the news as an UK refueling station for cia planes carrying terror suspects, is once again in the headlines. Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and soon to be former and still worst President George W Bush have announced joint retirement plans on the island. Sources close to the two Iraq war buddies claim that the island will be renamed Blush or Bushlair depending on who wins the next round od cribbage.

The Diego Rivera Fan Club were outraged at the idea of erasing their hero's name from the island. Fan club historian, Diego Rivera the vii reminded reporters that Diego Rivera was a waterboarding victim during the Spanish Inquisition and that Grand Inquisitor Cardinal Torrequemada frequently denied that waterboarding was torture. The Cardinal used to say that he'd swallowed more water surfing off Mallorca during his six week annual lenten retreat.

When Bush retirement planners learned the history of Rivera all plans for the name change were put on hold. New proposals include Khalid Sheikh Mohammed-Abu Zubaydah-Abd Al-Rahim-Diego Rivera Island.
