Liberals blame Bush for Huricane Katrina (no, I am not joking)

OK. We all know the Left has become so unhinged that they blame Bush and the right for all the ails of the world. But never content to simply ascribe man-made evils upon us, the Left has now broken (wetted?) new ground by blaming President Bush for Hurricane Katrina and all the damage that is sure to ensue. Here are a few examples:

"in a poor neighborhood".... Say no more."

"Most sickening thing I have ever seen in this country... Where is the f*&^%$g FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?"

" Heartbreaking...and sickening. Gee, where's our National Guard? Oh that's right. They're in Iraq."

"If it turns out there is loss of life because of the NG being tied up in Iraq in an elective war there will be hell to pay.

The National Guard exists for emrgencies just like this one.

"It's too soon to tell. But we will find out. And if that's the case it falls squarely on Bushitler's evil shoulders and there is another count of impeachment against him. I hate that f*&^#r."

">>I hate that f*&^#r<< So do I. With a passion."

"that would mean the federal government gives a s**t can't be having that. people will think they're special or something."

"Couldn't be any uglier As I said on an earlier thread this storm has the potential to easily kill more people than 9/11. The WWL feed had one of the Parish Presidents on and when he commented that approximately 20% of his residents had no way to get out, the interviewer asked what would become of these folks? His only answer was grim, "they will become part of the search and rescue mission tomorrow".

"With the National Guard spread out all over I would hope that someone is planning to mobilize regular forces from Polk and other nearby bases, but I am afraid that the only thing going on in Crawford is Rove trying to determine where the best post-storm photo ops will be for Bush."

" These people being stranded and herded like cattle is criminal It's CRIMINAL!!!!!

I can't stand it, this country is going to s**t, and the proof is when you have people in harm's way and very little resources to help them. What the hell did they ever do to deserve this? Doesn't the Christian God love these people, too?

I saw a car with a "Proud To Be An American" bumpersticker today and it was all I could do to keep from ramming into it. I wanted to yell at him, "What the hell are you so f*****g proud of?"

The haves, the have mores, and the never-will-have. Proud to be an American, my a**."

The national guard is rumored to have experimental anti-hurricane weapons. The only problem is they were developed by evil military contractors, so a lot of folks get queasy at the thought of using them.

Gov Blanco looks remarkably inept, and Mayor Nagin looks like a deer caught in the headlights. They clearly did not rise to the occasion and folded. I hope the people of New Orleans and LA will be ok.

AMEN!

[oolatec]

So... uh... where are the quotes?

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the ping! Jeepers...

I think the author took those people's quotes shamefully out of context. They probably went something like this:

-"in a poor neighborhood.Say no more...Barkeep, another dauquiri!"

-" Heartbreaking...and sickening. Gee, where's our National Guard? Oh that's right. They're in Iraq...Another dauquiri, please."

-"If it turns out there is loss of life because of the NG being tied up in Iraq in an elective war there will be hell to pay...Another round of dauquiris over here, bartender!"

-"The National Guard exists for emrgencies just like this one...Keep those dauquiris coming!"

-"It's too soon to tell. But we will find out. And if that's the case it falls squarely on Bushitler's evil shoulders and there is another count of impeachment against him. I hate that f*&^#r...DRINK! DRINK! DRINK! DRINK!"

-"Most sickening thing I have ever seen in this country... Where is the f*&^%$g FEDERAL GOVERNMENT? Where's my f*&^%$g dauquiri?"

-"I hate that f*&^#r. So do I. With a passion...Waddya mean you're out of dauquiris? F*&^#'n Bush! Let's try the bars on Bourbon Street."

If both Bush and Cheney were impeached and removed from office, the President pro tem of the Senate would move into the office. He is at the moment Ted Stevens, the Alaska Republican.

If they impeached only Bush, Cheney would nominate another Veep, who must then be approved by majority vote of both houses.

I always thought that the next person in the chain of command from the President, and the vice President was the speaker of the house, then the secretary of state.

[Restorer]

I believe you are correct, except that the President pro tem of the Senate follows the veep and precedes the Speaker. Which is odd, because we traditionally give the president pro tem position to some party hack nobody has ever heard of. At least the Speaker is a party leader, and the position has actual power.

This peculiarity of the Constitution may bite us on the butt someday.

Libs on the left coast: sun rose in the East! Must be Bush's fault.

They believe it should rise in the West.

Oh, the humanity.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Lol! I didn't know our president was so darn powerful :-D

[samtheman22]

Very respectable points. People that aren't involved directly or seeing what's happening in the area are saying some ignorant things. Reading the huricane katrina story I just read that was posted by a little girl may make people talk differently about things!
