According to the Whitehouse.....

Immediately after the quake hit the east coast of the USA, the Whitehouse, in a hastily called press conference said that the earthquake eminated from the oft cited Bush Fault. This Whitehouse has blamed the Bush Fault for several years for everything from earthquakes to bad weather to the economy and alsmost everything else that ails the nation. I guess the upcoming tussle with Hurrican Irene can also be directly tied to the Bush Fault.
