Dave1 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Bush to Sell Louisiana Back To FranceAP | 29 Sept BATON ROUGE, LA. – The White House announced today that President Bush has successfully sold the state of Louisiana back to the French at more than double its original selling price of $11,250,000. “This is a bold step forward for America,” said Bush. “And America will be stronger and better as a result. I stand here today in unity with French Prime Minister Jack Shiraq, who was so kind to accept my offer of Louisiana in exchange for 25 million dollars cash.” The state, ravaged by Hurricane Katrina, will cost hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild. “Jack understands full well that this one’s a ‘fixer upper,’” said Bush. “He and the French people are quite prepared to pump out all that water, and make Louisiana a decent place to live again. And they’ve got a lot of work to do. But Jack’s assured me, if it’s not right, they’re going to fix it.” The move has been met with incredulity from the already beleaguered residents of Louisiana. “Shuba-pie!” said New Orleans resident Willis Babineaux. “Frafer-perly yom kom drabby sham!” However, President Bush’s decision has been widely lauded by Republicans. “This is an unexpected but brilliant move by the President,” said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. “Instead of spending billions and billions, and billions of dollars rebuilding the state of Louisiana, we’ve just made 25 million dollars in pure profit.” “This is indeed a smart move,” commented Fox News analyst Brit Hume. “Not only have we stopped the flooding in our own budget, we’ve made money on the deal. Plus, when the god-awful French are done fixing it up, we can easily invade and take it back again.” The money gained from ‘The Louisiana Refund’ is expected to be immediately pumped back into the rebuilding of Iraq.

Righty Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Its funny how people make fun of how stupid Bush is, and when they do that, they act like Kerry was smarter. Bush got higher grades in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaz The Great Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Its funny how people make fun of how stupid Bush is, and when they do that, they act like Kerry was smarter. Bush got higher grades in college. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not saying Bush and Kerry are stupid or smart because I stay away from conflict like that, but I just wanted to add that I know plenty of people in my honors classes that get extremely good grades but they're dimwits otherwise. There are different kinds of smart, and just being book smart doesn't necessarily make you intelligent. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And the same goes for NOT being book smart. It doesn't automatically make you an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulie Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Actually, that wouldnt be such a bad idea. He should try it. He would actually be making a profit on something this time instead of spending money on useless shit and/or purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Righty Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I just noticed your avatar ... interesting. No country would be stupid enough to buy it, but just by the nature of that type of area (delta) its going to be all gone in a long time anyway.
