And so does he.

So, if one wants to "buy some fireworks and blow up some terrorists this weekend because I can", all the better. Just don't complain when you see Bush being burned in effigy, or see a flag trampled upon.

As for these, I'm not sure why some of them are relevant to the question of mocking leaders and/or terrorists via explosive devices.

1. Correct (but immaterial)
2. Likely (but also immaterial)
3. Correct (but why the reward amount is in any way pertinent, I can't say)
4. Like SuperDanman said, one man's terrorist is another's great leader. I'm not at all saying that Bush is Saddam's spitting image--but neither of them are especially responsible leaders. (And when we're talking about fireworks, who cares if presidents and terrorists are in the same category--they're all going to explode anyway....)
5. If they can't take a joke, or a parody, they should be in another line of work. Don't waste taxpayer dollars chasing Canadians who make fun of the system™. That sort of paranoia is utterly insane, and belongs in Soviet Russia.
