Bush to Speak to Republican Convention
Source: ABC

September 01, 2008 10:56 PM

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos reports: After skipping the opening day of the Republican National Convention to personally check the emergency response to Hurricane Gustav, President George W. Bush will keep his appointment with the party faithful.

Bush will speak to the RNC Tuesday in St. Paul, one day after the convention opened to an abbreviated schedule due to the storm.

Hurricane Gustav hit the Gulf Coast almost three years to the day after Hurricane Katrina devastated the area, and left deep political wounds on Bush and his administration.

Eager to demonstrate the lessons learned from the Katrina criticism, Bush visited evacuee centers in Texas today. And Republican candidate John McCain spent the day at a disaster relief agency in Ohio and packed boxes of cleaning supplies to be sent to the relief effort.

1. McCain is starting to make even Bush look more palletable in comparison...
Think of what that says about him.

4. I heard he will not actually be in St.Paul, but speak from a remote location
somewhere in the midst of the Hurricane so as to show his concern..and also so that McSame and prez shit-for-brains won't have to appear on the same stage together..

5. I'm sure he'll be heinous as always.
After 8 years, I still can't watch him without endangering my tv.

9. And in today's moment of Zen...
...the article I posted this morning, from Politico, about certain Republicans breathing a sigh of relief over the fact that Junior wouldn't be coming:
