Frank Lautenberg: Why is Rove playing politics while Rita is barreling
towards Texas?

Frank Lautenberg asks what the rest of us are wondering: If Karl Rove is the guy in charge of managing hurricanes and the country is about to be devastated by one again, why is he spending the weekend playing politics?

10. thanks CW
ya know I can't even say what I was gonna a post originally on the letter which was gonna be"Un-frickin-believable"-because I DO believe it and still can't.The other thing that I've been thinking about allot lately and I don't know why is the 3 picture set the GOP sold of Bush in AF1 running scared looking out the window for the boogie man on 9/11-They profited on that - it was disgusting.Oh yea one more; how about Limbaugh when Wellstone was killed?That was some day here on DU I can tell you and I believe YOU too were there Cat Woman-I used to be Oustemnow-I had several hundred maybe even over a thousand posts under that name.They never cease to amaze-the hits just keep on comin'

12. yea I was the guy who broke the Limbaugh story here
remember my "Rush Limbaugh is a fat junkie" threads?I had inside info before it became a national story.He was really starting to piss me off with his name calling-Little Dick for Gephardt and all the horrible things he was saying about Hillary-I had had enough and outed him-you can look it up-I'm actually quite proud of that

8. Excerpt from the Lautenberg letter to Bush
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4860788&mesg_id=4860788

complete pdf is at http://www.thewashingtonnote.com/archives/Lautenberg.pdf

" . . . we have learned that Mr. Rove will be traveling to North Dakota to engage in political fundraising activities. When this fearsome hurricane makes landfall on Saturday, Mr. Rove will be delivering a political speech to the North Dakota Republican Party, and will be featured as a special guest at a fundraising dinner.

I respectfully urge you to remind Mr. Rove of his responsibilities as the coordinator of relief and recovery efforts, and direct him to keep his attention focused on this critical job. There will be plenty of time for fundraising, but for now, putting lives back together and rebuilding communities must take priority over building political war chests."
