AP: Monday, August 29. President calls for moratorium on "hunkering."

Washington, DC.  In his first news conference since Hurricane Irene ravaged the east coast of the US, President Obama today called on all Americans to "join me in a voluntary moratorium to stop the overuse of the word, 'hunkering.'" According to the President, "It's a very silly word, and I think we can all agree we've heard far too much of it in the past 48 hours." The President gave assurances that no legislation was contemplated at this time, but "it remains an option if CNN and The Weather Channel can't give it up. I mean, really. What does it even mean?"
In answer to a question by a correspondent from FOX News concerning the abrogation of the people's right to hunker, the President responded, "Get over yourselves. Please."
