President Bush Sells Louisiana Back to the French

 

 

President Bush and a giddy Jacques Chirac shake hands on the deal.

 

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 Sharaq, 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 beleaguered residents of

Louisiana.

 

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 'T'he Louisiana Refund' is expected to be

immediately pumped into the rebuilding of Iraq.

Oh good, I'll spread the truth then. There's a lot of people living here in Phoenix now that will be glad to know that. So do New Orlean citizen's automatically become French citizens? I'm guessing so, since we all know that the gov will be sure that they keep their property, it must have been laid out in the paperwork prior to the French purchase.
