PRESIDENT BUSH SENDS KATHERINE "HANGING CHAD" HARRIS TO BAGHDAD TO "COUNT" THE VOTES

PRESIDENT BUSH SAYS THAT "WITH KATHERINE OVER THERE," THE BUSH-BACKED CANDIDATE ABDUL-AZIZ AL-HAKIM "ABSOLUTELY" WILL WIN IRAQ ELECTION

BAGHDAD - Katherine Harris, the controversial former Florida Secretary of State who spearheaded the 2000 Presidential election "recount" that put George Bush in the White House, is being sent to Baghdad to "count" the votes for the election in Iraq.

"With Katherine over there counting the votes fairly, this election is over," the President smirked as he expressed confidence that Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim will win the popular vote.

Ms. Harris missed her flight to Baghdad because of the delay caused when she accidentally brought too many carry-on bags to the airport. "I don't know who that woman is but she brought five bags too many," said American Airlines porter Sean Cannon. "She must not know how to count."
