New Bush Transcripts on Katrina Discovered
While the video showing President Bush sitting like a dumbass and asking no questions the day before Katrina hit New Orleans may lead one to believe he was uninvolved, the Cheney Administration has released new transcripts showing GW was on top of things. These are the actual transcripts from the discussion between Brown of FEMA and GW Bush obtained by NBC News.
Brown: Mr President, I fear that hurricane Katrina is going to be devastating to New Orleans.
Bush: Howdy Brownie, old buddy. He he he...what's this gooey stuff in my ear...
Brown: Sir, the hurricane. It is going to make landfall tomorrow and I fear the worst.
GW: So, this is a big storm. Big storms have lots of wind. Winds blow hard. Hard winds, big storm acomin. Kinda glad I'm here in Crawford. No winds today. Sunny and mild here in Crawford. Good day for clearing brush.
Brown: Yes, Mr President. But Katrina. I fear that the levees may be breached. The water, it may go over the levee and make a big hole. Do... you... under...stand ?
GW: Well, that would be bad. Lots of water would come in to land. That would take leadership. That is what leadership is all about...hmmm...what's these things on my sleeve..oh..just some string, what's that ?..oh, some lint.He he he...got some lint on my sleeve. He he he...
Brown: Mr President. We will need immediate evacuation. We will need the military. This is going to be the big one, I fear.
GW: That would be evil, Brownie. Oh, axis of evil, Iraq, North Korea, Katrina. Bad storms, you see, do bad things to people. That is something I understand as a leadership. Leaders have leadership. Storms have big winds. Real big winds. And hurricanes, Brownie, are even bigger winds. Now, just second here, I got this itch. Gotta stand up a second...oohh, that's better.
Brown: So, Mr President. Can I count on your help ? Are you mobilizing the National Guard ? Or the military ? How are we going to evacuate the residents ?
GW: Oh, the National Guard. Brave Americans. Do their duty. Stay the course. You see Brownie, that is what the American people want..what, the hell is this green thing hanging from my nose ?..oh, got it...The American peoples needs leadership. Storms can be evil, but if we stay the course, then we will stay the course. Trust the people, Brownie, not the big government. The people of Lewsiana don't want no big government telling them what to do. Americans don't cut and run, Brownie. Those New Orleanianders ain't gonna cut and run from no Katrina, not on my watch.
Brown: Mr. President , are you going to do nothing ? Are you giving us any help at all ?
GW: The Iraqis and the New Orleaners have got to stand up and help theirselfs. Axis of evil. Big storm a comin. Could be lots of rain. Kinda like Nova's Ark in the Bible. Ponchos. A friend of my brother-in-law has a nice little factory in Shanghai, Chinaland, where they make these yeller ponchos. Keep you dry. Even in the rain. Great little idea, ponchos. Let me see if I can get you a good deal on a few dozen ponchos. What colors do you like. I like yellers and reds. Real cheap. You know there ain't any labor problems in Chinaland. He he he. Gotta go clean some sagebrush Brownie. Nice talking to you. Keep me posted on this big wind business. Don't you forget, I'm behind you 100 per cent.

Joe,
The Ports issue is only the tip of the iceberg. Take a look at this one buried in the back pages of the Christian Science Monitor:
WHITE HOUSE APPROVES SALE OF POSTAL SERVICE TO LICHENSTEIN
In an apparent move to bolster sagging presidential polling numbers, the White House today announced the impending sale of the United States Postal Service to the kingdom of Lichenstein.
When queried by reporters as to the rationale for this move at a White House ceremony in the Rose Garden, President Bush replied, “People are always complain’ about the mail bein’ late, goin’ to the wrong house…it ain't right. The American taxpayers deserve better…and we got to hold the ones in charge accountable. Those Lichenstine folks are gonna run this now … they have a long, successful track record in deliverin mail to their folks on time and makin’ a profit too.
Stunned reporters asked further, “How could you possibly sell one of our prized assets to LICHENSTEIN?” Bush fired back, “Who did you want us to sell it to, Osama bin Laden? Look, you gotta realize. People don’t use the post office anymore except to send money to Mexico and that’s gotta stop. Americans are usin’ the internet, not the post office, to send letters .. and they’re usin’ Federal Express and UPS and all them private outfits for packages … so what’s left? Stamp Collectors. Lichenstein’s been making money for years off of them. You will hear some people object, stand in the way of free market enterprise and try to hold back globalization. But those are the same folks that want to take away your freedom and expose us to the terror of pre 9/11 thinking.
After the President left, White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan clarified the President’s remarks. “In the vetting process we considered Monaco, San Marino, and Andorra but found each was problematic. Monaco was too close to France. The President stated that San Marino sounded too much like a California city. And it should not come as a shock to you that we all had difficulty spelling and saying Andorra with all of those “r’s”. So that really only left us with one choice.
When asked if Lichenstein really had enough people to run such a large operation even if the entire country was involved, McClellan replied, “it is really not going to change our daily operations. The same people who work there now will continue to function within procedures established and adopted. We simply want to respect globalization efforts by taking advantage of the best and brightest available talent.
When asked in a similar vein whether he could idenfiy a Republican candidate as the brightest and best for the 2008 elections, McClellan stated “we do not discuss hypothetical situations.”
