The traitorous liberal media smears God's Anointed Preznit
Posted by Jill | 5:24 PM

How dare they impugn the honor of Fearless Leader?

The Manchester, NH Union Leader (a conservative-leaning paper):

Katrina already is measured as one of the worst storms in American history. And yet, President Bush decided that his plans to commemorate the 60th anniversary of VJ Day with a speech were more pressing than responding to the carnage.

A better leader would have flown straight to the disaster zone and announced the immediate mobilization of every available resource to rescue the stranded, find and bury the dead, and keep the survivors fed, clothed, sheltered and free of disease.


CNN's Jack Cafferty, normally a Bush Apologist:

You wonder, given the notice that we had, that this thing was out there and it was getting to be just as deadly and nasty as they're capable of being, you wonder if more could have been done, should have been done to prepare, to evacuate, to do some contingency planning... You wonder with almost a week's notice from the time this thing crossed the Florida peninsula if enough was done to protect the people in the path of this storm.


UPDATE: This diary at Kos has a summary of the editorial commentary...and it isn't kind.

If the Bushistas think allowing another terrorist attack to happen will pump up their approval ratings, they'd better guess again. America is waking up to their incompetence and callousness.
