As Katrina was bearing down on New Orleans, Bush and Chertoff were being advised about how bad things looked (even by "Brownie"). Neither had any questions. After the meeting, Bush advised local officials that "everything was under control."

Of course, nothing was under control. It was probably the start of the biggest government cockup in decades, if not centuries.

And what did President Bush say after the fact, to quell the anger? "No one could have foreseen this."

I am so sick and tired of this man's lies.

A Veterans Affairs nurse in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was investigated for sedition after she wrote a letter to a local newspaper criticizing the Bush administration's handling of Hurricane Katrina and the Iraq war. In her first broadcast interview, we speak with Laura Berg, as well as an attorney with the New Mexico chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.

TRANSCRIPT - link below - worth a read - also speaks of World War II veterans, triggered for the first time by Iraq and actually, having memories and nightmares coming out (I was wonderin' if I was the only one - not WW II for me - I ain't that old - Alice's War

Larry I tried to sound the words out that Gerry wrote - after workin' on them for a couple hours I felt I had them down - the sound of them was planted in my head as I went back to the woods and cut some fire wood late this afternoon - the more they ran thru my mind the more familiar they seemed - really was buggin' me - then with the saw roaring away it hit me where I had first heard them - it was a Bob Dylan concert last year - he sang words or sounds just like that - ah hey mr tambourine man or was it tangled up in blue ?? <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/confused.gif" width=15 height=22> maybe he did them in both - it was a great concert whatever he said <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/cool.gif" width=15 height=15>

What's this about umlauts? It's too early for breakfast, but make mine a Western.

Oh, sorry, I went off-topic. I did recently think of a great tg-line for this administration, paraphrasing another old wartime slogan -

"George Bush: Making the world suck - for democracy!"

Originally I saw the misspelling of "furher" or then thought maybe it was intentional as a Bush thing. Then I noticed there was no Umlaut over the U. I think what I said was..

Mr. Larry,

Excuse me, but, is that not fuhrer with the Umlaut over the U, no?

Ordering a beer would have been a MUCH better idea, no doubt. As Myron Cope would say, "Yoi". Or if it was really bad "double yoi".
The impeachment continues.
