Hey folks, we have a national emergency on our hands

[DoYouEverWonder]

Do you know where our President is?

I hear he came out and made a statement that was so incoherent they cut the video. WTF? The biggest storm ever to hit the US is heading for New Orleans and Bush is AWOL, again. Why am I not surprised? Bush always goes AWOL when the country needs him. Why should this time be any different?

[lonestarnot]

1. He's high... he's on vacation!

[wryter2000]

2. They cut the camera?

For real? I didn't try to watch him. I can't stand it, and I know folks here will keep me up to date.

Is there a link somewhere? I'll go search today's posts. TIA

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

5. He probably couldn't keep a straight face...

Too giddy about the imminent rise in oil prices, and about what he and his cronies can pull while we're not looking. Idiot. :eyes:

[wryter2000]

15. Do you suppose he was having a money orgasm?

:hide:

[RC]

18. To say nothing about the death & destruction from the hurricane.

Isn't there some way he can be declared incompetent and removed from office? That will being cheney front & center so we can keep a better eye on him.

[DoYouEverWonder]

19. He should be charged with Dereliction of Duty

and forced to step down immediately.

[blm]

24. Shoulda been charged with that Sept.11, 2001.

.

[DoYouEverWonder]

25. No kidding

talk about Dereliction of Duty. Everyone in the high command committed Dereliction of Duty that day.

[NYC]

17. I'm still looking for a link.

If I find one, I'll let you know. Please do the same for me. :hi:

[tmooses]

3. He has to be reprogrammed as "the emergency president" by Rove.

[karlrschneider]

4. They finally did get the video from his "comments" on CNN, M$NBC etc

but he spent about 45 seconds on the hurricane then babbled incoherently about the "Iraq Constitution", "freedom", "terists"...bla bla for a few minutes. You didn't miss anything.

[buff2]

7. Same Shit,Different Day......

Nothing new here.....Moving on.....

[jbnow]

20. Yes, that came on CNN

and it disgusted me. Well bush always disgusts me, but I listened to hurricane part but couldn't believe how quickly he went into the Iraq lies. Who wants to hear BS from him when there is something real here.

And...thinking about funding he cut that would try to help prevent such devastation a few years ago and hearing him talk about Iraq and thinking how poor all the planning was for the illegal war they seemed to connect.
That is...they just don't worry about things. They don't consider consequences. They live in denial about whatever doesn't fit their beliefs or needs.

That stupid tan face up there lying. HE is as devastating as a hurricane.

[abbeyco]

6. Uh, there probably ain't

no water out on his bike track to mess up his ride. :sarcasm:

Honestly, he's probably got no clue how to handle this since there's no local National Guard to assist with local disasters. Nice boat he's left NOLA in, so to speak, huh?

I hope the storm peters out and that there's minimal loss. Keep safe and you've got my thoughts and prayers everyone.

[DoYouEverWonder]

12. The storm went south and west

out over deep and unusually hot Gulf waters. This storm isn't going to peter out.

[napi21]

8. No I don't think they cut the camera. The audio was aired first, but

now they have the video on CNN and I'm sure all other chanels too. Wolfe explained why it was just audio at first, but I didn't pay enough attention to it.

[WLKjr]

9. He is practicing with "Moving on with his life"

The storm won't affect him any, he has to show the American people that he leads a balanced healthy life, and btw that means FUCK YOU america........... I have to move on with my life.....



I still can't get over him saying that about Cindy's son.

[earth mom]

10. I'm not surprised. He hasn't been there for the people of this country

for years now. Same shit, different day. :sarcasm:

[Ilsa]

11. Haven't you heard? He needs to get on with his life.

He can't be bothered with all that pesky death and destruction and rebuilding from the worst hurricane in US history.

Besides, on Sundays he has to go out for his three hour bike ride on the trail.

[HereSince1628]

13. Since you are aware of the emergency, I hope you're gonna give

some sort of $$ to the relief?

I mean you in the sense of all of _you_ reading in this thread, not just the poster, although I hope the poster will too.

[Hubert Flottz]

14. Well it is Sunday and he has to get on with his ne'er-do-well life.

He was probably speaking in unknown tongues in honor of the club 700 rifle team.

[Selatius]

16. Those OIL RIGS in the gulf are now SHUT DOWN

Do you people realize what that can do to oil prices in the US???

[etherealtruth]

21. YES, I do

[theHandpuppet]

22. I have to confess...

I turn the channel whenever Bush holds a press conference. Just the sight or sound of him literally makes me sick to my stomach!

[DoYouEverWonder]

23. New pic on the wire

I've never seen someone go on vacation and end up looking worse instead of better. He looks like shit. What is wrong with this man?

[HardWorkingDem]

27. Quit picking on the man.....

he's doing hard werk.....

[Selatius]

28. I almost feel sympathy for him or some kind of sadness.

How far can a man fall in life?

[Garbo 2004]

29. Tanking in the polls, Iraq's going Islamic & grieving moms. Bet it bugs

him he can't control everything. On the bright side though, terraists are threatening death to folks and it looked like that just made his day when he spoke about that.

[HardWorkingDem]

26. Do your part in this time of need...

keep shopping!!
