Bush and Chirac close the Deal of the Century
BREAKING NEWS Nagin out of a job!!
BATON ROUGE, LA. – The White House announced today that President Bush has successfully sold the state of Louisiana back to the French at more than double its original selling price of $11,250,000.
“This is a bold step forward for America,” said Bush. “And America will be stronger and better as a result. I stand here today in unity with French Prime Minister Jack Sharaq, who was so kind to accept my offer of Louisiana in exchange for 25 million dollars cash.”
The state, ravaged by Hurricane Katrina, will cost hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild.
“Jack understands full well that this one’s a ‘fixer upper,’” said Bush. “He and the French people are quite prepared to pump out all that water, and make Louisiana a decent place to live again. And they’ve got a lot of work to do. But Jack’s assured me, if it’s not right, they’re going to fix it.”
The move has been met with incredulity from the beleaguered residents of Louisiana.
“Shuba-pie!” said New Orleans resident Willis Babineaux. “Frafer-perly yum kom drabby sham!”
However, President Bush’s decision has been widely lauded by Republicans.
“This is an unexpected but brilliant move by the President,” said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. “Instead of spending billions and billions, and billions of dollars rebuilding the state of Louisiana, we’ve just made 25 million dollars in pure profit.”
“This is indeed a smart move,” commented Fox News analyst Brit Hume. “Not only have we stopped the flooding in our own budget, we’ve made money on the deal. Plus, when the god-awful French are done fixing it up, we can easily invade and take it back again.”
The money gained from 'T'he Louisiana Refund' is expected to be immediately pumped into the rebuilding of Iraq.

:rofl
Just watch though - its gonna change. I have no clue if it will be better or worse, but it is definitely upended. This is probably the first time this has ever happened to a state. What worked 5 weeks ago - won't work today. It wont be boring, thats for sure.
The police chief of New Orleans resigned yesterday, and I will not be surprised to see more resignations. All the cheer-leading aside, Louisiana has changed permanently.

I think the first order of business is to improve the curb appeal. After that, some marble countertops and crown molding would help. Hardwood floors might be too prone to warping with moisture and humidity though -- perhaps some nice tile?
