wwl.com. They said "You tell me this food couldn't be delivered during Dubya's VISTA?". It just sat there on the highway for hours waiting to be delivered. Dubya is NOT gonna PR this away!

3. and the meals were held back from the hungry evacuees until
Laura arrived for her photo-op. Both bush and his wife held up feeding hungry people, including children until they got their PR done. Despicable.

6. but we forgot turkey!
how did they ever snake-oil their way out of the Plastic Fantastic Thanksgiving Turkey fiasco in Baghdad?
Or was that Kabul?
One's mind can only attempt to balance so much BS.

4. I thought it was in the CajunDome that people's lunches were late
Did she do it again? WTF!?!

I've had five of my brothers visiting today so I haven't been watching the news.
