Photoshop pop-up: “Some of the data in this image are damaged. Do you still wish to open it?” That was the message I got as I opened this Aug. 28 image from the White House site.
CAPTION: “President George W. Bush is handed a map by Deputy Chief of Staff Joe Hagin, center, during a video teleconference with federal and state emergency management organizations on Hurricane Katrina from his Crawford, Texas ranch on Sunday August 28, 2005. [See Larry Johnson’s TIMELINE BELOW.] White House photo by Paul Morse.” (Cropped, resized by susanhu.)
As Jerry Policoff, who sent this image to me, said, “Some pictures are worth a thousand words.” And, who knew on August 28 that — because its subject did not pay attention to the maps and television before him, or to the experts on speaker phone with him — this image would also reveal a lie as big as those lies exposed in the Downing St. Memo, a lie that cost over ten thousand U.S. lives?
MY STATEMENT: “George W. Bush, as a citizen of this nation, I arrest you in the name of the people. You must not murder any more of our citizens — the heart of our country — through your indifference, your ineptitude, and your cruel, sadistic proclivities. You are a murderer. You must stand trial and meet your fate under current federal law.” (What is YOUR statement?)
