Bush anticipates "another disaster this year"

[orleans]

and if he's anticipating it, i get the feeling it could be fucking scary. (what does he have in mind?)

"We've got what we called a Disaster Relief Fund. There's enough money in that fund to take care of this disaster. But what we're concerned about is future disasters this year. And therefore, we're going to work with the Congress. Jim Nussle is going to go up to work with Congress to get enough money in the upcoming supplemental to make sure that fund is -- has got enough money to deal with a potential disaster, another disaster this year."

1. He can't pronounce or spell "misappropriation" so they've parsed it down for him.

I wonder how many billions his little slush fund will require.

[Jim Sagle]

2. Just in time to call off the election and install himelf as president for life?

[beac]

3. I think Bush has been watching a little too much Daily Show.

He's starting to speak exactly like John Stewart's parody of him.

4. "Jim Nussle is going to go up to work with Congress to get enough money in the upcoming

supplemental to make sure they fund Richard Prince
and KBR and the rest of my disaster relief friends
in the coming year."

Too bad he was too slow on the draw to cash in on
the Mississippi floods

5. The "disaster" I'm worried about is

McCain stealing the election. Honorable mention goes to the SCOTUS getting even more conservative.
:scared:

6. Maybe he has been talking to his "higher father" to find out what Mother Nature

has planned.

7. bush IS a disaster

i predict another outrage will emerge today, and the day after that, and the day after that....

8. Hmm, when an irresponsible idiot starts saying that

we should not touch that money until we are in a real emergency, I start thinking the money isn't there anymore.

[Earth Bound Misfit]

9. That was my first thought also

[ColbertWatcher]

10. I bet it will correspond with one of their trials...

...or hearings.

These guys are so predictable.

I hate that the GOP-controlled media have manipulated so many of their sheep.

I hate stupid people.

11. Oh shit, he let that slip. I wonder what they have planned for us. I mean we KNOW an October

Surprise is coming about a week or less before the "election", unless it is something STRONGER the Bushies have planned for us, like a nuclear 9/11. We KNOW it will be fear-inducing and highly shocking to the nervous sytem, liek in 2004 when the Bushies released their Two Volume Bush-Bin Laden Campaign Tape Set, one of bin Laden, the other of the "Amerian al-Qaeda"

The Rules of Bushie-Nazi Propganada say that the October Surprise (or any other staged propaganda event designed for short-term effects) MUST be close enough to the "election" to cloud people's minds, so that it is stil effective when it comes time to "vote".

If the Bushies had run their tapes in September, the fear would have worn off and not been effective propaganda at all, so the Bush-Bin Laden tapes HAD to be released three days before the "election".

If the Bushies opt to attack us with something stronger this year, nuking Iran or the Bushies hitting us again like they did on 9/11, but with nukes or chemicals, those things are so much more psychologically powerful and fear-inducing they have a longer "shelf-life" so I think if the Bushies are going to nuke Iran or "9/11" us again, it can be done anytime after September. Andy Card saud, after all, that Bushies don't "roll out new products" in August.

But it will be interesting, and I think this Bushie quote IS, in fact, him letting slip (as he so often does) the plans he overheard in meetings. I have no doubt the Bushies have some disasters planned for us, and it may be more than just a single October Surprise.

After all, the Bush-Bin Laden Tapes were TWO, so it wouldn't surprise me if the Bushies have a series of triphammer blows prepared for us.

Details are impossible to predict, but there WILL be a Bushie-staged October Surprise this fall.

Make book on it.

12. Well, tomorrow is another day.......for Bush to screw up.

[Imagevision]

13. Yeah for Bush and repugs, Obama being elected President

[Olney Blue]

14. He's the disaster president

[Fly by night]

15. ... and he should know.

It's time we went after the real terrorists harming this country.

Kucinich is trying. The rest of us better be ready to respond also.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

16. why this year?

I didn't know he was psychic?

[bdamomma]

17. he is planning something, or is he doing it again

instilling FEAR in the American people.

[Sabriel]

18. Once again, he's behind the times.

Hey, W, come look at Wisconsin and Iowa sometime.

There already IS a disaster.

(edit for un-nimble fingers)

[Alcibiades]

19. Statistically speaking, he's right

It's quite probable there will be another disaster this year. We still have hurricane season to go though, after all.

If only he had had this much foresight in re Katrina or 9-11.
