Blind, Deaf Outraged by Bush Metaphor
Washington, DC | Remarks in a new book by Bush Administration
insider Paul O'Neill have drawn considerable ire from several
handicapped organizations.

The former U.S. Treasury Secretary says the President's cabinet
meetings, during which plans for regime change in Iraq were put
in motion a mere ten days after Bush's inauguration, resembled "a
blind man in a roomful of deaf people."

The National Association of Blind and Deaf Americans issued an
angry statement this week, saying, "The NABDA resents any
comparison between our membership and the incompetent moron
President."

The Society for the Advancement of Incompetent Morons
immediately responded, "We don't ap preciate being mentioned in
the same breath as that smirking little monkey boy," to which The
League of Monkey Boys replied, "How dare you compare us to
that lying sack of crap."

A representative from the Exalted High Brotherhood of Lying
Sacks of Crap was unavailable for comment.

2. That WAS a pretty insensitive thing to say.
He should have said that Bush resembled a Bohemian in a room full of Pollocks.
