Everything about this article sends my blood pressure into the stratosphere!
I was pissed off yesterday when Bush did a "flyover" in Air Force One, and we got to see pictures of W. with his widdle face pressed against the window. Why didn't he land? Why hasn't he been anywhere near there yet? Why is Condoleeza Rice off in NY watching Broadway shows and buying shoes? WHY AM I SURPRISED BY ANY OF THIS?!
What kind of mindset would allow the president of the nation to stay in Washington when there's desperation of this level happening?! He's not going until FRIDAY?! The levees broke on Tuesday! The entire town of Gulfport disappeared on MONDAY! What is going on in his tiny pea brain?! People from this area have already made their way down to help out in what ever way possible, and George can't even stop BY?!
The president spent 35 minutes looking out the window as the aircraft passed over Louisiana and Mississippi and saw the damaged roof of the New Orleans Superdome and the city's flooded neighborhoods.
The president's plane flew about 2,500 feet over New Orleans and about 1,700 feet over Mississippi.
"It's devastating. It's got to be doubly devastating on the ground," Bush said.
Fats Domino is missing. He lived in a low-lying part of New Orleans.
And I try to care about the following, but you know what? I don't: "The highest-profile lawmaker impacted by the storm: Mississippi Senator Trent Lott. His antebellum home in Pascagoula was leveled by the storm surge."
