I watched "The President" give a speech this morning surrounded by misc. polticians of Lousiana, Mississippi and Alabama. He was also joined by the head of FEMA. Sometimes I wonder if Bush actually knows where he is? This man instills ZERO faith in the US government's efforts to aid those affected by this hurricane and displays about as much leadership as a brick.
When a country is in crisis, they look to the leaders of their country for answers. George W. spent most of the morning congratulating all the white male politicians on their great job so far, and complimented the head of FEMA, who he called "Brownie" on his extradorinary efforts thus far. He said he was looking forward to sitting on Trent Lott's porch when he rebuilds his house. IS HE INSANE? He also likes to refer to people as "folks." He often calls members of Al Queda "folks." This morning he said, "We're going to help the folks affected by this disaster." In Bush's world, "folks" = either a homeless New Orleans refugee or terrorist.
As Anderson Cooper said to a Louisiana senator, Mary Landrieu yesterday: "Bodies are being eaten by rats in New Orleans." Yet our President is dreaming of a mint julep on Trent Lott's new porch.
Two people who have shown compassion, leadership and outrage in this whole mess have been Harry Connick Jr. and the aforementioned Anderson Cooper. A singer and a reporter. They disgrace our President and his entire administration.
So that's my ticket for 2008:
Connick/ Cooper
WATCH ANDERSON GET TOUGH

A fantastic blog. Keep it up. Here's the resolve a lot of people are searching for; their eyes were watching god about info on their eyes were watching god
I love those two! If I vote next election and they are running they have my vote. I think our President is doing a horrible job with this and everything he's done.
My ticket is Barbra Boxer and John Conyers. Bytheway what do our Senators think? Who r r senators you ask? They are hidding under their desks like most Democratic congresspeople. They don't want to mess up their own good deals.
