Pres. Bush announces gigantic engineering
effort against effects of global warming
Washington, March 22, 2008 (PP) -- The White House today announced its first-ever initiative to deal with global warming. For years, President Bush has denied that the earth is warming at all. More recently, he's acknowledged that the warming is happening, but insisted that it is not caused by human activity such as the burning of fossil fuels.
Only in the last several weeks has the Administration begun to admit that man-made global warming is real, and that it is a serious threat.
By late summer, Phase One of Winds of Change will
place 25,000, 1 megawatt turbine towers across Texas.
“I am concerned about the very warm season ahead this year,” President George W. stated this morning. “My scientifical advisors have warned me that this summer may be the hottest ever in much of this country. I have consulted my good friends in the energy industry, men who know a whole lot more than just that scientifical stuff. I come up with this new program all on my own, after talking with them. I call it my `Winds of Change Project.´ I will be requesting that Congress pass an emergency bill to authorize the project. It'll cost one hundred billion dollars the first year, but that's chump change compared to Iraq.”
“We cannot allow another hot, windless summer to devastate our most susceptible states,” said Bush. “This huge national project will not only address that problem, it will also create many new non-combat jobs. These powerful, electric motor driven fans will provide wonderful relief by producing pleasant, cooling breezes.”

Good one, Halfmooner!
Phase Two must be for another "hundred billion dollar" to build a wind generation farm to ~power~ Bush's Global Warming/Cooling project. Bush's 'scientifical' advisors advised him this system would power itself. |

Sure, building the generating turbines downwind of the fan turbines outta work just fine.

Huge oscillating fan farms up in the Arctic circle, and down in Antarctica.

And now The Onion gets into the act.
Edit: Oopsy.
The Onion was first. Their article is dated June, 2007. So it looks like I was the one who got into the act. |

It's a good idea. Properly placed on the border with Mexico and set only slightly above the ground, it can accomplish two purposes: cool the country and be a part of the anti-immigrant fence as well.
