Bush Announces End to Fire Threat

Hilarious piece...kudos!!

"Bush spoke of the concerted efforts his new Office of Faith Against Fire (OFAF) has made in the past few months. "Its hard work has paid off. Americans are now fully aware that fire is hot and dangerous. Americans are now more conscious than ever of the fact that fire safety is in their hands - and in God's - and that God is not neutral in the struggle. The introduction of OFAF has, according to the president, made it possible for city and local governments to save billions of dollars in staffing and equipment costs that had been dedicated to firefighters. "

4. No it's not a joke...bush* is turning over to faith those duties that

used to belong to humans. This is a brilliant move...who can sue GOD?
Faith based hospitals, faith based products, faith based ..just put on your thinking cap... its all about faith. No need for reality when I can conjur up in my mind anything I wana...just no faith based drug laws!

I knew God was against Fire. Thanks to George for pointing that out. :-)
