10. done, but
I went there to vote him down and got a gander that those pathetic photos and for the briefest instant had a twinge of sympathy.

Geez, what a pathetic shell of a nothing he's become. But hey, who deserves it more, eh?

14. Let's get that Sucker on
Edited on Mon Sep-26-05 06:37 PM by zidzi
aol..Too bad they didn't have anything below Poor..he was way below Poor in both of them.

buzzflash has an article on fema in Texas and..

"NEW YORK In Beaumont, Texas, claims that federal relief agencies learned their lessons from Hurricane Katrina and are on the ball in the aftermath of Hurricane Rita are apparently ringing hollow. The Beaumont (Tex.) Enterprise reported tonight that disaster response coordinators in the area hard hit by Rita say they are seeing the same foot-dragging federal response this weekend witnessed two weeks ago in New Orleans and Mississippi.

Jefferson County Judge Carl Griffith and other local leaders, "haggard after days of almost non-stop work with little sleep, pleaded with the federal government to get itself in a higher gear," the paper said. Griffith said he wanted to return services to residents who remain but that "it seems like they can't figure out how to get it done."

An analysis on bush not fairing any better on Rita because of the way he behaved on Katrina.

http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/050925/w092544.html

"I don't think there's any question that Katrina influenced the way he responded to Rita and good for him (for) being on top of it," said analyst David Gergen, who was an adviser to four presidents.

"This weekend is not going to move the needle," Gergen told CNN. "He's not going to come up in the polls. He's got a long, long way out of this."


And david gergen should know, shouldn't he?
