I wonder if they are trotting this news into the Oval Office now, or are going to wait until some time next week to send the info to Preznit Vacations'r'Me.
As many as 1 million people were ordered to clear out along the Gulf Coast, and hospital and nursing home patients were evacuated Wednesday as Hurricane Rita turned into a Category-5, 165-mph monster that could slam Texas by the weekend and inflict more misery on New Orleans. Forecasters said Rita could be the most intense hurricane on record ever to hit Texas, and easily one of the most powerful ever to plow into the U.S. mainland.
Given that Rita is headed right for Tom Delay's back yard, I'm guessing that Preznit Promoting Crony's will be there within hours of the storm making landfall and passing inland. After all, what with the budget being balanced, what else does he have to do, go on vacation?

Hey...maybe somebody should call FEMA and tell them that a hurricane is on the way.
