Man I wish we had Clinton’s surplus right now. Bush wants the political pat on the back for rebuilding the gulf coast. But wants the children of the people he is helping to pay for it. His debt is now officially off the hook. If the bastard had funded the Army Corps of Engineers properly he could have saved 200 billion by investing 200 million on levees. Maybe 12 billion more on wetland preservation. Why must our children and grandchildren pay for this assholes mistakes. Now I understand how he has run his companies into the ground. The money has to come from somewhere you goddamn dimwit. Hello, taxes are how the government makes money to deal with disasters.
He ignores peoples pleas for help and then three weeks later throws 200 billion at their corpses. He ignores warnings about hijackings then throws 100 billion a year into a country that had nothing to do with the terror attacks. He’s fucking insane. At least the people will get some help. Not as much help as Halliburton is about to get but its help.
Short term greed will always win with these bozos.
Imagine if $200 billion was spent on development and true peacebuilding instead of an illegal war which brings instability and increased terrorism.
These folks are inocculated against doing the right thing.
His indecision when the flooding started cost thousands of lives. Now we are to believe he is an okay guy for admiting responsibility. He started an illegal war that resulted in thousands of lives being lost and the destruction on an entire country’s infrastructure. But we are to believe he supports the spread of freedom in other countries. The freedom to die is all that many of those people have left.
I heard on CNN that his “base” remains intact. I suppose insanity can be a group experience.
They see the Titanic is heading for an iceberg, so they take the heroic steps of rifling through the safe deposit boxes, stealing all the liquor in the bar, and commandeering a lifeboat for themselves.
Is that schizophrenia or criminal negligence married to greed and corruption?
