If Bush doesn't go to Louisiana, he's faulted for being callous and uncaring. If he goes, he's faulted for diverting resources from rescuing victims. Do these people have any idea just how absurd and hateful they are? Message 21674418

Interesting that a former CBS executive would be switching from NBC to Fox. Must've pitched CBS over the left shoulder some time ago.

Tim Russert was on Imus this morning blaming Bush for evacuating people to the Superdome. Politics makes even the smart ones act like dumb shits.

It is against the law for any president to order troops into a city or across state lines without a request and permission from the Governor of that state. All the more reason why Dumbya should have entered Louisiana! According to some news sources, the governor of Louisiana who knew the levees were weak, who knew that the city had been slowly sinking and who knew that a major # 5 hurricane was approaching her city did not call Washington for help. Very cute. This is the same Federal government that wants to overrule states on abortion and marijuana and gay marriage laws. Yet when it comes to helping, they start quoting the rule book! Shameless bastages!
