What's that thing they impeached President Clinton for again?

Here's one for y'all: a sequel to Gone with the Wind, but call it Gone with Katrina:

Rhett Butler is Michael Brown. . . Rejected for his loyalty for playing the part of a sucker.

Scarlet O'Hara is President Bush: Just can't make up his mind.

And the part of Mammy will be played by none other than Ray Nagin, who thought he had a good thing but keeps getting yelled at.

Now the AP news folks are JUST finding out while others reporters in other countries have been blogging about it for at least a two weeks. Newspeople are poorly paid to tell us the truth, and if you watch FOX news, you know where the rest of the money is going--Bill O'Reilly's suits.

I'm sure a number of Americans are quite ticked off at their congressfolk who won't budge unless they think that they won't get re-elected. At least someone is checking out these no-bid recipients, (like Halliburton subsidiaries and Pres. Bush contributors who were under investigation for piling up dead bodies in mass graves. . . remember that blogspot from some newslink research?)

But now get this (all in the link at the end of this)

Even prostitutes getting aid money from federal employees. Well, at least the hookers will "As God is my witness, I will never be hungry again!"
(You tell 'em, Miss Scarlet.)

Anybody got a bonfire ready? It's time to melt some political smores since President Bush's FEMA people are now blocking aid to victims. (Hey, he got elected by somebody!) Maybe Red Cross cash is going into Republican pockets for Delay's indictment defense. . . anything's possible these days.

Bush Blocks Aid to Hurricane Victims.

hello Cynthia,
i do understand your sarkasm - how couldn't one feel other than this. Politics is about money, it has always been that way, and Katrina was yet another excellent opportunity to loot the treasury, and to redistribute wealth from the homeless to the billionaires. I just wish people would wake up.

Yup! No real change in New Orleans and Louisiana politics. Coverup is the name of the game. Two hundred and fifty policemen were not absennt from duty, they were stranded on rooftops. Uh, huh. Nobody got raped in the Superdome or Concention Center, they was as nice as angels, nevermind the terror that they (gangs, sister) had been wreacking before the storm. There were no snipers, although television reportes actually saw them and reported on it. Again, sweet lil' boys and girls. Nobody got murdered. Nope. Again, nice as converts. While I am guessing that the majority of folks were just trying to survive the hell they were thrust in, bad things DID happen to some of those folks. I am sure glad George Bush is president, at least he has taken a little of the heat off Ronald Reagan.

Being sexy? (My answer to the lead question). Nice article. And whadda you know? ONE person was murdered in that arena, no real reports on the rapes, and the shooting at the rescuers turns out to be a truck backing over a plastic bottle? Thanks for bringing the truth and the good questions to the table.
