Keith Olbermann For President
Stand in awe as the Bespectacled One lays down the smack:
But, nationally, these are leaders who won re-election last year largely by portraying their opponents as incapable of keeping the country safe. These are leaders who regularly pressure the news media in this country to report the reopening of a school or a power station in Iraq, and defies its citizens not to stand up and cheer. Yet they couldn’t even keep one school or power station from being devastated by infrastructure collapse in New Orleans — even though the government had heard all the “chatter” from the scientists and city planners and hurricane centers and some group whose purposes the government couldn’t quite discern… a group called The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.And most chillingly of all, this is the Law and Order and Terror government. It promised protection — or at least amelioration — against all threats: conventional, radiological, or biological.
It has just proved that it cannot save its citizens from a biological weapon called standing water.
Of course, not even this colossal failure will cause DubYa’s paid enablers to turn on him. Quite the contrary, they have already switched into “Protect Dear Leader At All Costs” mode, playing Blame The Victim with all the ferocity of a pack of baboons throwing feces.
What’s it like to not have a soul? Guess I’ll have to track down a DubYa Defender and ask him/her.
...and on a completely different note, my Summer of Peace and Quiet in the Liberry is coming to an end tomorrow, as the rugrats will be back in school. Pray for me.
(Update: 9/7) Well well well, surprise surprise, it turns out that the stories of gang rapes and murders in New Orleans, so breathlessly repeated as gospel truth by the Blame The Victim crowd, are turning out to be unsubstantiated and untrue. There really is no depth to which these scumsuckers will not sink in order to deflect blame away from Dear Leader. God damn their shit-filled souls.
