I have the same sense of disillusionment, heartache and disorientation that I felt during Katrina [View All]

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

because of the funding vote. I know -

"get over it"
"we wouldn't have won"
"long term strategy . . . blah blah"

When Katrina happened and people were dying on TV, I kept thinking "Where ARE they?"

Well, it's exactly the same feeling. And like a very moving post in Daily Kos about Katrina, you suddenly realize

"THEY AREN'T COMING!"

in fact they have no intention of being knights on horses and rescuing anything like: our soldiers, our Constitution, our moral core

They have no horses and they are not knights.

They travel by campaign bus and rescues are not on the agenda. But maybe next year.
