*wails*

Bush talking about Hurricane Katrina this Monday:

"I knew a big storm was coming...on Monday. That's why I spoke to the country on Monday morning about it, saying "There's a big storm coming..."

Hello, the storm was already HERE that Monday morning, you nitwit!!!! And then moments later he called it "extraordinary" that he "pre-signed emergency declarations in anticipation of a big storm coming." Well, good going there, dude. The whole country sure believed you this morning when you finally "took responsibility" for the federal government fuckup more than two weeks after the fact. Sure.

On the drawing room window there's a group of figures painted stained-glass style that are faintly recognizable as Dubya, Dick Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Condi Rice holding various incriminating things (LOL on the Cheney and the Halliburton book). I've always seen it there and accepted it as part of the drawing room decor, but it hadn't quite hit me how recent it must have been. Or, not recent, since Bush was first elected in 2000 and OH MY GOD I hadn't even graduated from high school yet. And then it hit me OH MY GOD I'm going to graduate from college with Bush STILL president. My younger sister will graduate from college by the time there's a changing of the guard. *cries*

The more I hear Bush speak on TV, the more I want to run and hide under a table. I look at his face and I have the feeling that there really is nothing happening under there.
