Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm so tired of being ashamed of our president. It's not just that he can't or won't solve important problems, it's that he doesn't even see that the problems exist.

There was someone in his administration (I forget who) - he said that every administration has a political team, in addition to a policy team and other stuff, but he was amazed that the Bush administration only had the political team, a political POV. (I'm totally explaining this poorly.) He called the Bush adminstration the "Mayberry Machiavellians."

Obviously, he was punnished for this.

Our wings are not tired.

A-B did this a couple days ago. They sent down close to 900,000 cans of water.

Ah, that's good to hear. No doubt there are a lot of private individuals and businesses doing a lot of good. It is just the people at the top who have spent untold dollars studying what to do in a disaster that are failing us.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Bush is speaking. Wonder if he'll mention Lott's beach house?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

"If the networks could figure out getting all their people and supplies in by Saturday night, why is it taking the federal government until Friday?"

You know, I work for a publisher -- we publish a monthly journal with subscribers all over the world, but mostly in the US. We don't mail the journals out from our offices; we have a company that does that for us.

My point? Our mailing company called today and said that they've already gone through our mailing list and pulled the addresses that are in Louisiana/Mississippi/Alabama, for the upcoming mailing.

If our mail service (NOTE: I don't mean the USPS; it's a private company that prepares the journals for mailing) can do that before the Feds get food and water to the survivors, that is fucking fucking SAD.

He did earlier, on CNN. Did you see the quote I posted?

I just want to shake him until his teeth rattle.

And then I want to send him in, alone, to spend the night in the Superdome.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm so tired of being ashamed of our president. It's not just that he can't or won't solve important problems, it's that he doesn't even see that the problems exist.

Yep. And after seeing his speech a few minutes ago, the shame is ever-enduring.
