Bush is either a liar, an idiot, or both. Here are some more facts,
typical of what I post. This is an except from the Times-Picayune
Sunday Sept 4th open letter to George Bush. I took special interest
in this letter because I witnessed all the statements they quote, and
was flabbergasted to hear them at the time. Doesn't anyone see these
for the bold lies they are?, I thought. I involuntarily blurted out
to my wife, in the other room, "They're a bunch of complete idiots!"
It was very upsetting.

"It was clear to us by late morning Monday that many people inside
the Superdome would not be returning home. It should have been clear
to our government, Mr. President. So why weren't they evacuated out
of the city immediately? We learned seven years ago, when Hurricane
Georges threatened, that the Dome isn't suitable as a long-term
shelter. So what did state and national officials think would happen
to tens of thousands of people trapped inside with no air conditioning,
overflowing toilets and dwindling amounts of food, water and other
essentials?

"State Rep. Karen Carter was right Friday when she said the city didn't
have but two urgent needs: "Buses! And gas!" Every official at the
Federal Emergency Management Agency should be fired, Director Michael
Brown especially.

"In a nationally televised interview Thursday night, he said his agency
hadn't known until that day that thousands of storm victims were
stranded at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. He gave another
nationally televised interview the next morning and said, "We've
provided food to the people at the Convention Center so that they've
gotten at least one, if not two meals, every single day."

"Lies don't get more bald-faced than that, Mr. President.

"Yet, when you met with Mr. Brown Friday morning, you told him, "You're
doing a heck of a job."

"That's unbelievable.

"There were thousands of people at the Convention Center because the
riverfront is high ground. The fact that so many people had reached
there on foot is proof that rescue vehicles could have gotten there,
too."

But what can we expect from an idiot President who appoints a fired
Judge of Arabian horses to head up FEMA? A few minutes with Google:

Here's plain talk, describing FEMA head Michael Brown, "An unmitigated,
total fucking disaster." http://dailykos.com/story/2005/9/2/34622/68348

And next Bush gives us the sobering prospect of an unknown right-wing
activist to head the third branch of government the rest of his life,
