President gives the Negroes “all they had ever hoped for” as Americans.
WASHINGTON — President George W. Bush posed for a photo with several actual Negroes today. The immense gesture marks the greatest benefit that the African-American community has yet received from the Bush Administration.
“Today is a great day for all our people,” Rev. Douglass Williams, one of the men in the photograph, said. “When Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke of his dream that one day we’d all living together equally, I’m positive that this is exactly what he meant — black people and the President in a photo together which will no doubt be used by the Administration to reach out to other blacks.”
Indeed, the successful photo-shoot pleased White House advisers, who quickly made several copies to save in case of emergency.
“From now on, nobody can say that the Democrats have better policies for creating more opportunities for African-Americans,” Political Adviser Karl Rove said while holding a copy of the photo. “Just look at this photo! This says it all! Does the President look scared? Does he look terrified? The answer is no.”
