"SoCal looks like a battle zone."

Yes it does. It looks like WWIII

Some airhead on Fox News just blamed the whole Calif debacle on President Bush.........
Sez his policy of clearing fuel in forests etc is a whole mistake.

"It looks like WWIII."

A FReeper over the weekend took issue with my unhappiness about the relative TV coverage of the fires (very poor) vs. the East Coast blackout (wall-to-wall). Yes, I know the blackout covered a few states and started at rush hour, and no one knew what caused it at first, but the bottom line is that with the blackout, people were inconvenienced. What's happening here is unimaginable death and devastation (and we're not *absolutely* positive what "caused" this in every instance, either). This also affects people across the country who are wondering if their loved ones are safe or have their homes. Maybe if he were in the middle of all this he'd see things differently.
