Rove to Catapillar Execs: "Is Your Insurance Up To Date?"
Edited on Wed Jan-31-07 02:41 PM by cynatnite
A Copley News Service report in the Register-Mail, a paper in Galesburg, IL, indicates that White House adviser Karl Rove asked Caterpillar executives to give the president a photo opportunity in the tractor. "Rove chatted briefly with Caterpillar executives about whether Bush would drive one of the tractors," writes Copley's Molly Parker. "Rove reminded them Bush doesn't do much driving on his own these days and asked if Caterpillar's insurance was up to date," she added.

1. Somebody MUST have caught the chimp's psychotic tractor rampage on tape.
I mean, c'mon, he was going straight for the press. Did not one sturdy soul have his camera on?

5. why the hell would Caterpillar be responsible?
I mean, bush isn't an employee. He should have his own freakin' insurance. oh. wait. I forgot. He never takes responsibility for his own messes. He must still be on his daddy's insurance. what a loser.
