Bush says NO WMD in Russia was reason for weak Georgia response

[yurbud]

At a press conference yesterday, President George W. Bush said he did not send troops to back Georgia in their brief war with Russia because Russia had no WMD.

"Look, I'm concerned when nations cross the borders of other nations and bomb and kill innocent people, but the fact is, Russia has no weapons that can reach the United States and no WMD. They just aren't a threat to us."

When pressed further, Bush said he had his staff review the public statements of his vice president Dick Cheney, his secretary of defense, Condi Rice, and former secretary of defense Don Rumsfeld over the last seven years and found that only two or three countries in the world may have nuclear weapons and other "WMD."

5. Is this a joke?

Even bush can't be "THAT" stupid, or could he?

10. This is the chimp we're talking about. Sure he could be that stupid.

I totally believed this was real at first because I wouldn't put such an idiot statement beyond Bush*.

6. I could almost believe he'd actually say that

And if he did, Dick Cheney would back him up.

7. God, you had me for a second. The sad thing is

that with these fools, satire almost loses it's meaning.

9. I got my master's in screenwriting, but I've been dry since Bush took office

My creative juices can't get going when reality is weirder than bad satire.
