The Legacy Project

Bush had a Classic Press Conference today. His Delusion is truly remarkable. Rachel Maddow (godblessher) is devoting most of her show today to it, check it out on MSNBC.com or whatever, if you can. It's much easier to take with her playing a bit of the conference and then refuting it. Anyway, one of his more egregious comments is about his response to Hurricane Katrina. Here's the take at Crooks n Liars and it has a cartoon!

Anyway, of all the ridiculous things he said, he said this:

I've thought long and hard about Katrina -- you know, I could've done something differently, like land Air Force One in New Orleans or Baton Rouge.

He goes on to say that then the Media would castrate him if he Had landed his plane and had to divert police to his security rather than helping with the clean-up.

All of this begs the question, is Bush possibly MORE FUCKING DELUSIONAL THAN I THOUGHT??? How could he be, yet here it is. Hey, numb-nuts, the problem wasn't that you didn't land down there and blow-kisses or whatever it is you thought you could do. The Problem is that You Don't Take Government Seriously. Your job is to be the government and implement policies that, you know, help run things. When you give heading FEMA to Brownie the wonder idiot when SHIT goes down SHIT will Really go down. 

Government is a lumbering behemoth that runs very badly when it is run well. Giving control of it to people who think it serves NO purpose other than to provide their friends with cushy jobs does no one any good. And occasionally handing the government to an idiot will turn a major american city into the new Atlantis.
