New Orleans is under water, Southern Mississippi looks like it's been nuked, Scott McClellan claims Hurricane Katrina will only a "regional" impact (even as gas prices surge pass 3 bucks a gallon in Menotomy, the Crescent City's Walmart's gun sections have ben picked clean...and now shots are being fired at Army Helicopters engaged in evacuation work at the Superdome.
Meanwhile the Yahoo News Summary message boards are swarming with nasty little geeks all screaming for martial law, curfew, preventative detention and a shoot on site policy.
With what?
The National Guard is in Iraq...and you know armchair libertarian gun worshippers aren't gonna form up no posse to wading down Canal Street.
In sum it is just another typical day in George Bush Jr's Little Tin Fraud Life.
Sadly, the people of New Orleans and all other affected areas are about to find out the true value of George Bush's promises. He has in the past vowed to re-conquer the moon, fly to Mars, impregnate Iraq with democracy...smash terrorism, now he fantasizes about a gloriously revived New Orleans much as the Emperor Nero mused over the plans for his infamous "Golden House" after the great Fire at Rome.
Oh for a while we'll hear brave talk from Hastert and Delay and that whole corrupt & servile clique, but wait a month or so until the bills start coming in.
And coming in and coming in and coming in with the red ink rising like the waters from out the Gulf.
Soon enough there will be cover stories in the National Review with titles like "Is New Orleans Worth It?"
And then the hunt will be on with the whole Praetorian Class mounted up to find a decorous way to leave the City to it's fate.
Nevertheless, I feel for the plain people of that region, they didn't ask for this and certainly deserve better than George Bush's morally bankrupt leadership.
