How Katrina Killed the Bush Presidency [Blumenthal Alert]
Salon ^ | September 15, 2005 | SIDNEY BLUMENTHAL

After Katrina, Americans no longer believe in George W. Bush the protector. His presidency is ruined.

Katrina is Bush's headache.Bush's America is gone with the wind. It lasted just short of four years, from Sept. 11, 2001, to Aug. 29, 2005. The devastation of New Orleans was the watery equivalent of a dirty bomb, but Hurricane Katrina approached the homeland with advance warnings, scientific anticipation and a personal briefing of the president by the director of the National Hurricane Center, alerting him about a possible breaching of the levees. It was as predictable as though Osama bin Laden had phoned in every detail to the television networks. No future terrorist attack would or could be as completely foreseen as Katrina.

Lets see, EJ Deonne, Morford, and now Sid. I am now CERTAIN that there was some internal FAX circulated among lefties, to plant this meme in the American consciousness. They are so obvious.

I saw another laugher yesterday from Martin Frost (commy - Dallas) saying that the 2006 elections are the libs to win.

These guys are hillarious

This guy is a moron. It must make him feel good about himself by speeking only to liberals who are too stupid to question the merits of his statements. King of the garbage heap? You still stink Sidney.

Sid the squid has to find a German outlet to publish his bile.

The predictions of the end of the Bush presidency by such gargoyles as EJ Dionne, Robert Scheer, and the wife beater is nothing but wishful thinking.

The only pattern I see to the increasingly hysterical rants of the left is that they want to lay upon Bush the same legacy that has been earned by their hero, Bill Clinton. Clinton was/is a liar, so they call Bush a liar. Clinton was impeached, so they want to impeach Bush. Bill Clinton's presidency was affectively over after Monica, so they want Bush's presidency to be over after Katrina. They can not stand that their political hero was such a failure; they are attempting to "get back" by declaring Bush a similar failure.

My email response to Sid:

"Keep it up, Sid. Delusion and hatred never won elections."

Blumenthal is raw fecal matter... he's lower than Carville & Ickes... as to how much sewage he's willing to spew.

Uhh?? Sid didn't your side say this after DUI, AWOL, Plamegate, Sheehangate, No WMD's, etc?? Methinks you're misunderestimating again.
