Bush Fails To Prevent East Coast Blizzard
by Brian Williams NBC 02/12/06
As President Bush and his staff cowered in the White House, the
snow continued to pile up on the many poor and African American
victims who could not afford to get out of town or to safety in
Florida. Crucial supplies of blankets, hot cocoa, popcorn and
dark rum - so essential to surviving the stress of any major
snowstorm - lay in stores undelivered.
"Where is the government? I need my sidewalk shoveled so I can
get out to buy my danged lottery tickets!" said one D.C.
resident from his living room. "Why are we wasting money in
Iraq when we could be spending it here on me?" Progressive
blogs blasted the President for his inaction. We find the
timing terribly suspicious - just as the Domestic Spying
hearings kick into high gear, what happens? A major northeast
Blizzard. Why now?" wrote one blogger.
Hearings into the Blizzards' effect on hearings are almost a
certainty. Howard Dean has suggested he will call for an
investigation once his new medications kick in and John Kerry
took a break from the sporting activities of the glamorous
super-rich in some exotic locale (random choice: Ice Sailing in
Finland) to call for new legislation outlawing snowstorms.
"The Republican Congress has dropped the ball once again. I
have always been a staunch supporter of anti-snow legislation,
except for certain locations where I sk i. Snow has no business
on our roads and the President and Congress knows that."
Calls for impeachment over "SnowGate" as some are calling it
already are mounting as deeply as the snow itself, and what
will be discovered underneath will prove to have a truly
chilling effect on the Republicans, as the inevitable thaw
proceeds. Or something like that.
More breaking news......
Al Sharpton wants an investigation as to why snow is ALWAYS
white.
Cheney has stock in Tru-Value Hardware.
Do you have any idea how many SNOW SHOVELS they sold today to
the unsuspecting consumer?
I demand to know why FEMA has been so late in reacting to this
storm. THEY KNEW IT WAS COMING! And yet they failed to have
crews in place to fix the electricity as soon as it went off.
It just shows that Bush and the Republicans just don't care
about the people in the N.E. The Senate needs to investigate
this with administration people under oath.
I'll bet that the great junior senator from N.Y. has opened the
doors of her home to all of the heatless poor of her
neighborhood and is busy baking cookies for them while her
husband applies body heat to the nearly frozen teen-aged girls.
