What would be in a time capsule of the Bush Era?
Here's a bunch right off the top of my head:

Freedom Fries
Mission Accomplished banner
Crushed Dixie Chick CD
Some crappy RW C/W music like Toby Keith
Enron Stock Certificate
Yellow Ribbon "Support Our Troops" magnet
Hanging Chad Ballot (FLA)
Copy of Swift Boat Vets book
Some crappy hat/mug/shirt/jacket of O'Reilly "No Spin Zone" merchandise
Any crappy Ann Coulter or Hannity book
Reservist callup letter
"Stop Loss" notification letter
Flag draped casket

Video:
-Ari Fleischer "Watch what you say, watch what you do"
-Any one of a thousand cable "news" shows about Aruba/Holloway
-Rumsfeld talking about "shock and awe" and the "humanity" employed in bomb targeting
-O'Reilly browbeating some "liberal" guest on his show

That's just from a minute or so of thinking.

21. Nope, haven't seen any either. What I meant was since no one
ever found any, they might 'magically' appear in the time capsule, and only b/c boosh would have planted them there.
