Do you have a link for this thread?
Thanks.
It's Bush's fault.
no, I got it from my workplace at the AP. I read it on the domestic wire and thought ppl would be interested in the first-person view of how things happened.

Thank you for your report, nuve9. Absolutely speechless here. Prayers offered. Please stay safe and continue to post us.
This is the one from CNN and also on MSNBC's website. I read it there last night.
Thank you for reading it. I truly do pray for everyone affected.
A tragedy of unimaginable proportions.
you really think so?
No. But I wanted to say it before the Left wingers did.
I really don't think any "left-winger" will be saying that in this case.
He's been accused of everything else. Why not?
Oh sure they will. They'll blame it on global warming, if only Bush had signed on to Kyoto. I can hear the whining already.
My God, those pictures are devastating.
So many of the dead never had a chance.
respectfully, because this is a true natural disaster that has nothing to do with the politics of Bush and even mentioning it is just adding fuel to the fire. The only thing to blame for so many deaths in this case, would be the fact that Asian officials failed to issue public warnings after the undersea earthquake. It's insane to think these countries don't have warning systems. It would be meaningless to point fingers to anyone like Bush in this case and anyone who does so just has nothing better to say.
