I think history will be far kinder than you to Mr. Bush.
Well, you're right in a WAY, kmiller, 'cause for SOME reason, the media was makin' it through, whereas the trucks with FOOD AND WATER, weren't.

Dude, I was THERE. I saw the whole thing with my own two eyes. We were about six or eight cars behind Joe Scarborough's trucks, when they got TURNED BACK.

That was one of the biggest federal c*ck-ups in MY living memory, certainly that.....

Imagine that - the FEDERAL agents are runnin' around TEARING DOWN RADIO ANTENNAS!!! What do you make of that?

Those f*ckers touch my antenna, I SHOOT THEM, is what happens.

God help me - some of those idiotic f'in FEMA agents, are lucky to be ALIVE right now. They're lucky they didn't strung up by the b*lls, ON THE SPOT. Dude, that was HORRIBLE, it was a horrible, horrible situation.

See, that's a CLEAR case, of government falling down on the job. That's what happens, when people scream "cut government", and then they got their prioritites bass-ackwards and sideways so they're out there funding CREATIONIST LITERATURE and NOT emergency services!!!

Dude, that kinda thing is REALLY f*cked up. That's just another in the long, LONG list of the ramifications of the FALSE MODEL these Republican Neo-Cons have been spewing into our faces for the last 8 years.

Dude - hello - disasters that cross state lines, are a FEDERAL responsibility. That is EXACTLY what it says, in the contract.

You better read that contract again, son. That's why we HAVE things like FEMA - that is NATIONAL SECURITY, pal. That is the TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Point made?
