White House Prepares for Hurricane

[demdave]

WASHINGTON - The White House is battening down the hatches as Hurricane Isabel approaches.



"We are working to secure items that may be blown away in the event of the high winds here," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said Wednesday. "This could include flags. It could include the awnings around the complex. Those will likely be brought down. We'll be checking the drains in the complex to be sure that they are clear."

3. Dumbya will likely ride out the storm at an Air Force base in Nebraska.

Hey, somebody's got to do it.

5. Where will bush* run to and hide until the big, bad storm passes over?

Maybe Air Force One will just fly him over to Crawford in order to make him feel safer??

[PaDUer]

8. Mr. (hot air) McClellan better tie himself down

It doesn't take a lot of wind to blow hot air around.

[Bozita]

9. Heat fuels hurricanes. -- Get McClellan outta there.

10. You mean the Imperial Palace

The White House was where Presidents of the (now-defunct or merely dying depending on your view) Old Republic Lived.

And we have neither a pResident NOR a Republic anymore.

12. Maybe They Could All Go Hide In Unca Dick's Undergound Bunker...

And then, if the storm surge, the rain, and the drains will just cooperate........

Well, you get the idea, don't you Mr. Ashcroft?

:evilgrin:

[AntiCoup2K4]

13. If the White House gets ripped apart, and any of the BCE perish.....

....in the storm, how many of you non believers out there will have second thoughts? :evilgrin:

Because I can't think of a more deserving bunch to experience the "Wrath of God"

[DoYouEverWonder]

14. Here's W

Battening down the hatches before the hurricance hits. Not!

[Superfly]

16. Guess he's headed back to Nebraska

Shit, after 9/11, you'd think that NE was the safest place in the US.

17. Fawn Hall working overtime helping to batten...

...down the hatches

Important things that can't be blown away
1) Memos from Enron
2) Cheney Energy Task Force documentation
3) FirstEnergy campaign contribution memos
4) Patriot III rough outline
5) Cliff Baxter notes
6) Private phone numbers for Ken Lay and Bernie Ebbers
7) Copies of Cheney's Halliburton W-2s dated last week
8) Love letters to W from Roger Ailes
9) WH visit logs showing how many times Ann Coulter has slept in Karl Rove's office

What's that noise? Sounds like a shredder.

Later,
JM

18. So, just what does that mean?

Maybe it means that they've strapped Chimpy into a pair of industrial-strength Depends, in case he has a little accident 'cuz the scary wind won't stop.
