One Year Ago Today


One year ago today Our Dear Leader told those dying of hunger and thirst in New Orleans not to break into stores (from here):
"There ought to be zero tolerance of people breaking the law during an emergency such as this," Bush said in an interview on ABC's "Good Morning America."

"If people need water and food, we're going to do everything we can to get them water and food," Bush added. "It's very important for the citizens in all affected areas to take personal responsibility and assume a kind of a civic sense of responsibility so that the situation doesn't get out of hand, so people don't exploit the vulnerable." (emphasis added)
In other words, don't break into that grocery store to get that water and DIE if you have to. Why, breaking in to get food and water is to "exploit the vulnerable." Who, exactly, are the vulnerable in this scenario?

Is there some law that says Irony increases in direct proportion to Inanity?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And he continues on in his mad spiral downwards. The odds of a "terrist" attack before the election continue to go up. They are now over 100 to 1. And damnit, I feel absolutely helpless.
