Tissue

Surfing through TV shows and blogs (left and some right) one thing is sort of amazing. There is an unstructured deconstruction and full-on assault on the lies and truth-twisting that the 1600 Crew, its congressional apologists (Mary Landrieu) and others have been putting out over the last 24-36 hours.

I think that they just discovered that everything that they say and do has been recorded and analyzed by friends and not-friends. Finally.

President Bush headed to the devastated region to survey the damage. As he was leaving the White House, Bush told reporters that he believes the relief operations so far "are not acceptable."

But he said he wanted to "assure the people of the affected areas and the people of this country that we'll deploy the assets necessary and get the situation under control."

Well, I guess now that he's had his nap, a couple of hot meals, worked out and done a few meetings it's time to get to someplace safe near the Gulf Coast for the photo-ops with a few well-screened, but dirty and reliably republican white survivors. I'm sure that he's already got his advance crew of little political hatchet-guys down there doing the screening and telling the photo-oppees, "No questions, don't talk, don't look at His Imperial Majesty".

So, America, how is the steely-eyed missile man doing now? One thing he'll be remembered for in history besides getting the whole world to dislike and laugh at America: the largest civilian body counts from disasters in history on his watch, while he stood backstage and strummed. Way to go, asshole.

I'll take your ranting more seriously as soon as you lay into the Democratic mayor of New Orleans. Have you seen that photo of hundreds of New Orleans school buses sitting in a flooded lot? Why were they sending people to the Super Dome when they could have been evacuating them by bus?

This Democratic mayor is the height of arrogance and incompetence! His police force were handing in their badges rather than deal with the looters.

So, just as soon as you start calling him names (that's all you're capable of doing, not having the brain power to actualy conjure up a coherent argument), I'll take you more seriously.

Chester -

I don't usually answer my troll buddies, but I found this over at Suburban Guerilla.

Before his election, Nagin was a member of the United States Republican Party and had little political experience; he was a vice president and general manager at Cox Communications, a cable communications company and subsidiary of Cox Enterprises. Nagin did give donations periodically to candidates, namely President George W. Bush and former Republican U.S. Representative Billy Tauzin in 1999 and 2000, as well as to Democratic U.S. Senators John Breaux and J. Bennett Johnston earlier in the decade.

Days before filing for the New Orleans Mayoral race in February 2002, Nagin switched his party registration to the United States Democratic Party, presumably in order to improve his chances.

Thought you might find that interesting...

Still haven't answered the issue of his gross incompetence. C'mon, surely there are some junior-high names you haven't yet used.
