That's who did it?
(just seen on Fox News- sorry, no link)
There is a lot of blaming going on due to the tsunami. Who is responsible for all that destruction? Islamic clerics say Christian holidays brought on God's wrath. Other religious leaders say that God was doing some population control. Others say that Mother Earth was retaliating for the way we have damaged the planet over the years.
Then there's the loonier conspiracy theories. The war in Iraq, with all the hundreds of thousands of tons of explosives detonated caused the earthquake that caused the tsunami. Or, better yet, the United States and Israel detonated an underwater nuke in the Indian Ocean, intentionally causing the tsunami. (You can go look these up on Democratic Underground. No, I'm not going to link them. I will not be responsible for the death of that many brain cells).
So, a reporter asked former President Bush (41) about these allegations. His response?
"We're blaming Elvis, personally. That's how we'd respond."
Too funny. And very very appropriate.
