I predict Scott Sforza is going to get the full Little Lord Pissypants Bush-in-a-rage treatment tomorrow. Nice going, Scotty!






U.S. President George W. Bush participates in a reconstruction efforts roundtable with small business owners and community leaders while visiting New Orleans January 12, 2006. From L-R are: Lt. Gov. Mitch Landrieu, Bush and New Orleans Mayor C. Ray Nagin. The president is touring the Gulf Coast region to witness efforts to rebuild the region after Hurricane Katrina destroyed many parts of the area last year. REUTERS/Larry Downing

20. Theatrically speaking, yep.
"dramatic irony - (theater) irony that occurs when the meaning of the situation is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play"

But shrub will get it eventually.

11. Here's the Great New Orleans Smirk-Off photo


I bet the mayor is thinking just wait til the pics come out.


Of course, Smiry is thinking just wait four months til my friends start buying up all this property at 60 cents/dollar (if that).

So moron in Chief is pandering to the Joker voter?
So apropos.

Shouldn't Nagin be giving our illustrious commander in thief a piece of his mind? As far as I know, there's still a lot of dead and unaccounted for people in NO? How can scrub-ya even show his face there???

Did he get a promise that no one would mention his utterly failed lack of leadership during Katrina? Is there anyplace he goes that isn't even more stage managed that even Reagan?

Cr*p, you can practically see the strings that make him move...
