Rocky was on Fox: told victims to stop sitting around and complaining.

Rockey To Katrina Victims: Stop ‘Sitting Around and Complaining’ About Bush and ‘Be Thankful For What We Got’ »

Last week, Katrina survivor (and former right-wing politician) Rockey Vaccarella visited the White House and said, “I just wish the President could have another term in office.” Subsequently, Rockey was plastered on the White House website homepage and featured in President Bush’s weekly radio address.

Now, the President’s preferred representative of Hurricane Katrina is lashing out at other victims. Today on Fox, Rocky said that victims of the Hurricane should stop “sitting around and complaining” about the Bush administration and instead “be thankful for what we got.”

Watch it:.........

1. Things Could Be Worse....
As Marty Feldman said in Young Frankenstein....

Marty F. - "Could Be Worse."

Gene W. - "How So?"

Marty F. - "Could Be Raining."

<<Cue Cloudburst>>

3. I agree with rocky - he should immediately go to the 9th ward and
other hard hit areas and tell those people to stop sitting around and complaining. He should also tell them how he thinks * should be given a 3rd term. I'm certain he'd get a warm reception.

11. The only warm reception he'll get in the ninth ward is either
hot tar poured over him and then coat him with feathers or hot lead in his belly.

5. Rockey: Get back in your "honorary" FEMA trailer
And drive yourself off the nearest sheer cliff.

I've heard some people say that the name Vaccarella is derived from the Italian word for "tool."
