We All Dream Alone

Fuck you, Mr Bill. Fuck you.
or
I dunno, maybe Mr. Bill reads the newspapers?

from cnn today:

'On Capitol Hill Thursday, Louisiana's senior senator, Mary Landrieu, a Democrat, blasted the federal response to Hurricane Katrina, calling it "incompetent and insulting" to the people of her state.

"The record for rebuilding will be staggering, but it will pale in comparison to the staggering incompetence of this national government," Landrieu said in a speech on the Senate floor.

She also said it was unfair to fault local and state officials for what many have described as an inadequate response to the storm.

She also faulted Bush for failing to recognize the severity of the situation when the levees broke, noting that public service announcements featuring the Mr. Bill clay animation character have been warning about such a scenario for two years.

"We know the president said 'I don't think anyone anticipated the break of the levee.' Everybody anticipated the break of the levee, Mr. President," she said. "How can it be that Mr. Bill was better informed than Mr. Bush?"'

*disclaimer - it is not the intention of this post to insinuate that the local governments did all they could have, nor to lay all of the blame on Mr. Bill.



does this remind anyone else of "the office"?

'Brown's official biography on the FEMA Web site says that his background in state and local government also includes serving as "an assistant city manager with emergency services oversight" and as a city councilman.

But a former mayor of Edmond, Randel Shadid, told The Associated Press on Friday that Brown had been an assistant to the city manager. Shadid said Brown was never assistant city manager.'

*disclaimer- in no way does this post insinuate all of the blame rests on "brownie"
(after all, bush is the one that appointed him...)

this whole disaster is just so unreal, i keep expecting aaron brown to suddenly announce, "It has been established that persons who have recently died have been returning to life and committing acts of murder...the unburied dead have been returning to life and seeking human victims. It's hard for us here to be reporting this to you, but it does seem to be a fact. "

really, thats the only way it could get any worse.

my heart goes out to the thousands of dead and displaced. donate.
