YANGON, Myanmar. The death toll soared above 22,000 with an additional 41,000 listed as missing as foreign countries mobilize to rush in aid. Scientists have all agreed on the cause of this massive natural disaster: corporate greed.

Exxon-Mobil corporation was caught red handed in the Indian Ocean just days before by ships from the Republic of Holdtamayo. It would appear that Exxon-Mobil corporation was acting in conjunction with farmers in the United States to raise the price of food to struggling nations and raise oil prices further.

The Exxon-Mobil ships Douie, Cheatham, and Howe were caught burning oil in the middle of the Indian Ocean, warming the water temperature by some 10 degrees Celsius. This miniature global warming model caused the clouds to form, as water from the Indian Ocean evaporated rapidly. A tropical cyclone formed almost immediately.

After the cyclone hit Myanmar, American farmers rushed in with high priced corn and rice to sell the stricken people of the country formerly known as Burma. Commodity prices were already high on corn and rice, and now the pinch is being felt around the world. To make matters worse, oil prices reached $122 per barrel on word that Exxon-Mobil burned some 100 million barrels of oil to create the catastrophe.

At the White House, President Bush responded by saying how proud he was of American ingenuity and that there was no magic wand to lower prices.

“American ingenuity at its best. Exxon-Mobil corporation is to be commended on its research in climate change,” President Bush commented.

When asked about the steep cost of food and gasoline, the President replied, “Let the free market decide the prices for these things. Our strategerie is unchanged. Ethanol is good for the American farmer.”

In Tennessee earlier, we asked former Vice President Al Gore about the disaster. In a statement, he said the following:

|This is just more proof of Global Warming. Americans need to do their part by purchasing carbon credits to offset the greenhouse gasses they are putting out. As a matter of fact, I own several of these companies that offer carbon credits to offset their pollution and I would be more than happy to help. We also need to invest more money in my companies that are researching green alternatives to the filthy stuff we are polluting the earth with. If you do not do something now, more Myanmars will occur and I won’t reach billionaire quick enough.|

Exxon-Mobil had no comment at the time of this publication.
