NAME

Acme::Bushisms - Dubya Does Perl

SYNOPSIS

        use Acme::Bushisms;

        print "Hello world";

DESCRIPTION

The first time you run a program under use Acme::Bushisms, the module removes all the unsightly printable, democrat, and liberal characters from your source file. The code continues to work exactly as it did before, but now it contains Bush speak:

       use Acme::Bushisms;

       "And so, in my State of the -- my State of the Union -- or 
         state -- my speech to the nation, whatever you want to call it, 
       speech to the nation -- I asked Americans to give 4,000 years -- 
       4,000 hours over the next -- the rest of your life -- of service 
         to America. That's what I asked -- 4,000 hours." 
       --George W Bush, Bridgeport, Conn., April 9, 2002
        

NOTES

The Bushisms are random quotes from the Complete Bushisms Website by Jacob Weisberg on Slate. The address is http://slate.msn.com/id/76886 If this address changes, then this module will fail to work. I will fix that problem in a future release.

Special thanks to Perl Monks for helping me understand Acme::Bleach And, of course, to Damian Conway.
