President Bush unveiled sweeping plans for a new "War on Poverty" at a gala $50,000 per couple Re... President Bush Details Pla

"What hurricane Katrina exposed," Bush said to the audience of roughly 500 friends, Republican colleagues and supporters, who had been flown in at taxpayer expense on twelve private jets, "is that there's still poverty in America, even after all what my administration has done for poor people. So I'm going to declare a new war, a War on Poverty, and we're going to win it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. Maybe not for a long time. But someday, we're going to win the War on Poverty. You can bet on it. Maybe bet one of your summerhouses."

While an army of sommeliers bustled through the crowd pouring vintage Cristal from silk-wrapped hand-cut crystal carafes, Bush sketched some of the plan's highlights.

"One of the biggest problems in America is that there's a lot of poor children," said the president. "There's kids in poor families who maybe don't get enough to eat, don't have enough clothes and shoes. Don't have no health insurance. So we're going to do what we can to reduce the number of poor children by implementing what we call a "superfluous birth reduction program", it's a mandatory sterilizing program for poor women. A real simple thing we can do, don't cost too much money. That way, there's less poor children going to get born, and right there there's less poverty. It'll only cost the poor women a few hundred dollars to get it done, and it's going to be mandatory. Decided by income. So everyone's equal."

"There's also a lot of homeless people, people got nowhere to sleep, no roof under their beds," said President Bush. "So we're going to find those people and make sure they can be productive parts of society again. What we're going to do is build a whole lot of sort of outdoor production facilities, kind of like camps, where the homeless people can go, we'll round them up, and they go and work and also have a place to live."
