When a headline doesn't mean what you think

From Reuters, via Yahoo! News: Bush pitches war strategy.

Okay, so I know what they mean. The Lying Murdering Terrorist masquerading as a Human, otherwise known as President Duhbya, is trying, once again, to sell people on his unjust and evil war.

I, rather, would like to read it with the second definition here:
pitch
v. pitched, pitch·ing, pitch·es
v. tr.
1. To throw, usually with careful aim. See Synonyms at throw.
2. To discard by throwing: pitched the can out the window.

as in, "Bush gets rid of his current war strategy, which has led to over 100,000 deaths, hundreds of billions of dollars spent, with no end in sight and chaos in the Middle East, and replaces it with something developed by somebody who didn't shove their own head up their ass so far they could french kiss the ulcers in their stomach left over from years of self-abuse".

Of course, that would presume that he *had* a war strategy, and we all know that such a thing is second cousin to Harvey the Rabbit.
