Or was it your silver-douchebag battle-ax-in-law who put out your ciggies on your arm? Either way, Pickled, you are one fucked up dame.

First Lady Condemns Junta's Response to Storm

By Dan Eggen
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, May 6, 2008; A15

Laura Bush condemned the military government in Burma yesterday for its "inept" response to a deadly weekend cyclone, marking an unusual foray by the president's spouse into a high-profile foreign policy crisis.

Appearing at a White House news conference, the first lady said the military junta in Burma is preventing the United States and other nations from providing help in the wake of Tropical Cyclone Nargis, and she alleged that the country's rulers purposely declined to warn people of the impending danger.

"Although they were aware of the threat, Burma's state-run media failed to issue a timely warning to citizens in the storm's path," she said. "The response to this cyclone is just the most recent example of the junta's failures to meet its people's basic needs."

Foreign Minister Nyan Win said on Burmese television today that the death toll had reached 15,000, including 10,000 from just one town, according to the Reuters news service. He added that 3,000 more remain missing.

Bush also called the Burmese regime "very inept" and urged it to cancel plans for a referendum later this week, which she said would "give false legitimacy to their continued rule."
