Defective Yeti with punctuation-related Bushisms… and spinoffs:

“I like to tell people when the final history is written on Iraq, [the current violence] will look like just a comma.” (cf. original comma quote )

“The only way to stop the sectarian violence is to find a bridge between the Sunnis and Shiites, a hyphen that will join the two separate parties into one compound nation.”

“Victory is still possible in Iraq — albeit a victory enclosed in scare quotes and followed by an asterisk.”
