Bush Smacked By God

During a live, televised news conference, President George W. Bush was hit sharply in the back of the head by a large, semi-transparent, disembodied hand. All in attendance agreed that it was the presence of The Almighty.

Bush was in the middle of saying “our continued success in Iraq proves the justice and morality of our initial decision”, when the Hand appeared behind him and struck him so hard that he almost lost his footing. Bush seemed not to be aware that he was struck and continued speaking as if nothing had happened. Aides quickly escorted the confused Bush away.

Press Secretary Tony Snow later said “The President was touched in the head by God. And you don’t get closer to Divine Providence then that!”
