J. Alter said it's too late for Shrub to do good in NOLA. I disagree!
Shrub is ALWAYS saying "He's the BOSS!" Well, then prove it, damn it! Stand in front of a mike ans say, I'm going to pick up the phone in 15 minutes, call the leaders at FEMA, DHS, and (where ever else) and order them to get off their lazy a**es and release the damn money to fix your City!

I thought about this when several hosts today were reminiscing about Lyndon Johnson. HE was President when a hurricane hit too! He went directly to the disaster sight, at night. He walked up to a big tent, and when the people inside said who the hell are you? He said "I'm Lyndon Johnson, I'm your damn President, and I'm going to get this fixed for you!" AND HE DID!


THAT'S what a REAL President should do! Shrub could STILL do it, but then that would require him to actually care about the regular old American people, not only his wealthy buds!

1. The chimp's fake photo op in NOLA didn't fool anyone.
He doesn't care. He could have worked his ass off to fix it, but its two years later and what have we got?

3. That Johnson quote brought tears to my eyes. Is it any surprise to anyone that Johnson was a
DEMOCRAT?

The psycho isn't a REAL president. He never has been. He has never been elected and he's nothing but a front for CHENEY.

4. Yes, I really wish more actions like that would be widely publicized NOW!
There are a lot of people who are too young to ever know that that happenedk, and most likely a lot of older ones who have forgotten!

5. When has Shrub EVER taken responsibility? It's always, DON'T
look at the past TX governor record, DON'T "fingerpoint", always IT'S CLINTON'S FAULT, then, DON'T look back -- look FORWARD ------ then, Shrub is NOT on the ticket next time, look forward not back!!1

As MAHER told O'LOOFAH, "WHEN is the RIGHT time to criticize Shrub?"
