Penn missed the boat on this one, too.

Bush vetoed the Emergency Bullhorn Funding Bill.
It's Bushes Fault

What a TOOL.

Though come to think, NOLA may have a shortage of bull horns, but Mr. Penn has no shortage of bull corn.

HILLARY is now telling GRETA on FoX that the Media must keep this story up front so that the American People don't forget about our need to follow thru on this over the "months and years ahead."

Sean Penn's knowledge of the real world is apparently rather limited. He doesn't know that every squad car in New Orleans has a loudspeaker built in. Hasn't Penn ever watched cops, where in a dangerous situation the officer will stay in his car, and use his microphone to talk to the perp outside or in another car?

No, the lack in the City was not bullhorns. It was brains. Here's the equation: buses + time + a decision to use them = evacuation of everyone in New Orleans. On the other hand, buses + time - a decision to use them = flooded buses and dead citizens. I thought Penn was supposed to be a bright guy. Is this so hard to understand?

From the Herald Sun (AU) article today to which Drudge linked:

With the boat loaded with members of Penn's entourage, including a personal photographer, one bystander taunted the actor: "How are you going to get any people in that thing?"

What a total tool.

I guess they couldn't hear Spicoli's rants as he franticly bailed his boat with a little red plastic cup.

I am no fan of Penn's, but as far as the bullhorns go, I think he's right. In a situation where modern, current means of communications have been undermined or rendered useless, it's not such a bad idea to hang on to those means which remain reliable.

I will take issue with his whining that a means of cleaning off his boat people should have been available. That was simply not possible. I have a feeling "eeeiiiuuuwww" and "icky-yuk" were his main thoughts as he rescued people. If he came down to take it upon himself to go looking for people, he should have brought his own protective gear. If he didn't, then he has no reason to complain.

Not usually one to waste an opportunity to to be sarcastic, I don't even want to try to come up with anything glib...I just want to know why in the he## he is there? Has he been trained in search and rescue techniques? How did he come to have access to a boat and crew? How did he have photograghers standing by with their own boat? Did he displace a real rescue team? Of what valid use is Sean Penn in this situation? Will there now be a steady stream of celebrity hand wringers, finger pointers going down there and gumming up the rescue efforts by their largesse? Who let him thru the perimeter?

The Dimbulb got whacked on Drudge today is a MOST embarrassing way, so now he's doing double-time in damgage control, doing his FINGER-POINTING at the friggin' BULLHORNS.

Hurl-producing quick-get-to-the-camera DEFLECTION.

"There has to be accountability. One thing I noticed that there were no bullhorns to go from house to house to get people out to evacuate."

Oh, great. Now Penn envisions bullhorns with the ability to walk about and get people to evacuate?

Lucky for them there's a gas bag there now.
