[made me chuckle](http://www.flickr.com/photos/monkchips/20474623/) darkly.

It’s a bit like the Guardian Weekly’s ([Graham Rawles](http://www.grahamrawle.com/biography.html)) famous [Lost Consonants](http://www.grahamrawle.com/Shop/lc-enlarged/lc-876.html) feature.

So while Bush was “rusing” to war, Hussein was “rusing” to defend his position. The ruse defence didn’t work so good.

Rusing – there you go, the perfect word for the [post-reality era](http://columbianwatch.blogspot.com/2005/03/post-reality-era.html).
