UN Climate Report Spurs Bush to Reveal Retirement Plans

(2007-11-17) — As the release of the final report on climate change by a panel of Nobel Laureate scientists at the United Nations sent a tsunami of fear around the globe this week, U.S. President George Bush today for the first time revealed his retirement plans.

“I’m going to put together a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) and buy up a bunch of oceanfront property in resort areas both here and abroad,” said Mr. Bush. “Since the U.N. and Al Gore say it’s all going to be under 40 feet of water soon, me and my partners should be able to pick it up for pennies on the dollar, no money down. Heck, they’ll be paying us to take those bungalows, hotels and condos off their hands, and maybe to help them move inland to the mountains.”

The president said he and Vice President Dick Cheney have already talked with Halliburton executives about forming an REIT division which will buy beach properties under the name “An Inconvenient Trust.”

Mr. Bush said he would “start by offering U.N. scientists $50-to-$100 cash money for each of their ocean-view properties, which according to the conclusions they’ve drawn from their data, are totally worthless.”

In Glenn Beck’s new book, “An Inconvenient Book”...he has a map of where many of the celebrities live in Florida (all on the coastline of course) and makes the point that if they really believed in global warming and the coastline disappearing, why did they buy property there.

This person (scrappleface) is a genuine genius. We have to get Rush, Howie and Glenn to do interviews. Can you imagine?

Does this mean he won’t be returning home to Mexico?

I’ve often wondered how the Hollywood crowd explains their closeness to the sea and how the rising tide will consume their residence in twenty years.

Of course....when parties occur in Malibu....I’m sure they meet at the front door....toss back seven shots of something and a couple of snorts of cocaine...and the global warming frenzy rarely comes up in conversation after that point.
