Elmo - Dubya's Right Hand Man? Images of heavily-armed Marines patrolling Iraq may not be winning the US many friends in the Islamic world. So it could be time to enlist the soft and fluffy inhabitants of Sesame Street in the battle against anti-Americanism.

If the repeat wasn't so blatant it would be valid that a search wouldn't result in anything coming back, since the other post went out of its way to avoid mentioning Elmo or Sesame Street. Perhaps people should be more direct with their posts?

Or perhaps a normally hidden keyword section of a post to help mitigate the problem?

Or perhaps people should at least just read the front page?
