Ebbers to investigate WorldCom scandal.

Himmler to investigate Holocaust.

Bin Laden to investigate 9/11.

And (wait for it) Bush to investigate New Orleans flooding disaster!

OJ is still looking for the real killers!

But what ever they do, they must not reveal how they studied the case.. you don't want to let the bad guys know how you study a case, DUH!

Well, enough of these stupid jokes. Who is Ebbers anyway and why do you think this is a stupid idea?

As are the Benet-Ramseys.

From TFA:

"We still live in an unsettled world. We want to make sure we can respond properly if there is a WMD (weapons of mass destruction) attack or another major storm."

...Well, he's sticking to message. In the wake of the hurricane, it's good to know our fearless Dear Leader knows to keep our attention on WMDs, too.

Ebbers is the guy who ran WorldCom and used it as his piggy bank.

Just when you think you couldn't hate these guys more.

Is it right that Bush is going to investigate himself?

From now on, idiocy should be measured in 'Dubyas'.

First you whine because Bush isn't self-aware and therefore underevolved, and then you whine when he tries to do a little self-reflection.

"A little self-reflection"? I hope you're trying to be ironic, Sikander, 'cause otherwise you're either very dumb or very dishonest.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

Based on the history of the administration so far, we can assume that the investigation will conclude that:

1) New Orleans had WMD
2) Okay, it didn't, but the British told us it did.
3) There was no systemic problem, just the actions of some "rogue water."
4) If an actual count of the dead ends up being higher than the rough estimate, such a count is unconstitutional.
5) Everyone responsible for this debacle will continue to be held responsible up until the very moment they are actually identified.
6) We're going to Mars!

I thought I was doing more than trying to be ironic.

from the first linked article

President Bush meets with representatives from National Voluntary and Charitable Organizations at the White House on Tuesday, during a day devoted to the Hurricane Katrina recovery effort

amazing, he devoted a whole day!!!

"We still live in an unsettled world. We want to make sure we can respond properly if there is a WMD (weapons of mass destruction) attack or another major storm."

he should have added "or another 9/11 or nuclear attack or a martians' attack"
