Minorities Hit Hardest

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 ski. 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.

In a related story, The Washington Post has reported that during a family outing at the Whitehouse, President George W. Bush accidentally hit former President George Bush with a snowball.
Apparently President Bush was aiming at Frosty the Snowman (or is that just Frosty Snowman?) and apparently missed and hit the former President in the head and chest area. Apparently former President Bush was bending over to pick up a carrot to be used as Frosty's nose and stood up unexpectedly as President Bush threw the snowball.
President Bush's medical staff immediately performed first aid and former president Bush was taken to Walter Reed hospital for observation and treatment.
Hospital spokespersons report that former Pres. Bush is in stable condition in the ICU at the hospital. Unconfirmed reports say that the former president had suffered minor complications when part of the snowball melted and dripped into his shorts causing some discomfort and minor chaffing.
Post reporters have asked why it took President Bush 48 minutes for him to notify the press of this unfortunate accident. President Bush was unavailable for comment at the time, but sources close to the family say he did what was best for his father.
Congressional Democrats immediately lashed out at the President saying "This is typical of this administration. The secrecy and lying continue to pile up." Some questioned whether President Bush was even fit to be playing in the snow as reports of him putting peppermint Scnapps in his hot cocoa at lunch surfaced. Calls for his impeachment have been heard from several prominent Democrats.
Anti snowball groups have renewed their fight to completely ban snowballs. "One archivist was quoted as saying, "What if that were a child that was hit, or, worse yet, what if a child had picked up that snowball and accidentally hit himself with it?" They say that an estimated 1,098,650 children are hit with snowballs each winter.
Is this idiot serious ?
