Bush Gives Financial Crisis to God


National - During a recent speech about the mounting financial crisis in America, President George Bush turned to God [the Almighty] for an answer.

“We Americans are good Christians,” he said, “and God will not forget us in this time of need.”

The audience of 666 huddled around the stage, and White House staff waved candles before they all shared a prayer to The Supreme Being.

“If anyone can fix this mess, it’s got to be you big guy,” Bush said pointing towards the sky. “So I’ll wait down here for your address and then I’ll send you the bill, buddy.”

A recent poll showed that 54% of the American population believes Bush’s new God strategy will work; while 35% of people say Bush is speaking to the wrong god. The remaining 11% just roll their eyes.

“This is a joke, right?” devout Atheist Ronald Winters said on his way to another Atheist rally to discuss and prove the non-existence of something he doesn’t even believe in.

There remains talk on how soon a response is expected from the Lord and Savior, and in the meantime some stores will be accepting prayer cards and rosaries instead of paper money.
