"I spent my off day watching television and the media is doing their absolute best to turn the disaster in Louisiana into President Bush's Rwanda."

I think they're making themselves look like fools. Bush can't stop hurricanes, he can't make the levees hold, and he can't make up for the incompetence of State and local officials.

On our major local news station, the two afternoon announcers were actually griping that people are trying to blame Bush, and that it was ridiculous.

And how is it that every other State is able to handle hurricane disasters, but Louisiana is making a complete botch out of it?

I've taken a few hours off, so excuse me if this has been mentioned already, but I just got e-mail with a link to Fox News reporting that Fats Domino is missing - he reportedly said he'd ride out the storm, but his house is now underwater.

Needless to say, I hope he's okay... :-<
