I'm so #*%#@*& mad I could chew nails.

Our local newspaper this morning has an AP photo of George Bush at photo-op at Naval Station Coronado tuesday smugly strumming a guitar given to him by some singer, meanwhile the Gulf Coast and it's residients are being decimated by the effects of hurricane Katrina.

I don't have the ability to post the photo, but I hope it makes the cover of every newspaper and magazine in the country. Maybe someone can post it for all to see.

This kind of callous shit makes me furious.

1. Keep up the anger

If that picture gets out there, then maybe America will finally wake up and connect the dots of this disaster back to where the buck stops.

2. I'm thinking that picture might go down it history.

It rings so many bells. For example, Fiddling While Rome Burns.

I don't think a president has ever been so totally out of touch.

(Unless showing utter callousness to the poor and largely minority population of LA and MS is deliberate... a shout out to his base...)

5. I've seen the picture of brush strumming his guitar superimposed over

a flooded New Orleans. It's enough to make you sick.

13. Something like this?

This is my own version.

15. Sing along with "W" "How high's the water Mama--10 feet high and rising"

I have it on a Johnny Cash CD

or maybe a new version of "City of New Orleans"

"Sinking in the City of New Orleans
Huricane Katrina devestated me
I'm hanging onto a piece of roofing tile
While the French Quarter's rolling out to the see."

6. I am glad to hear it made the paper

Yesterday I was telling everyone to send this pic to everyone they know. Most people unless they see it on teevee or the paper don't believe how callous this guy can be.

8. I want to see it in every newspaper, on every tv station

7. Bush sings the blues...

Woke up this moanin'
When ah fell off the couch
Tripped on a pretzel
An' ya know ah said "Ouch"

Outside mah winda
I see somebody linger
Oh, it that Sheehan woman
Ah done gived her the finger

Aaaahhh got the mis'ry fo' N'awlins
And Miz sippy alike
Ah ain't hurt this bad
Since ah fell off mah bike

Oh, wut am ah 'posed to do heah ?
Ah axed mah Ma an' mah Pa
Damn that bitch Katrina
Messin' with the Mardi Gras

Ah been workin' so damn hard
Perfeckin' mah swing
Cain't ever get no time off
Oh, heavy hangs the head of a king!

One of my co-workers was passing by and heard me laugh; he said, "Uh-oh, it must be something about George!" :rofl:

11. no kidding. talking to boys on way to school. 9/11, tsunami, no.

but fuckin fly back to washington on a sunday to tear up constitution to pass a law for a specific person and her circumstance. schiavo.

talking about the event and disaster and pain of those there. looking for the good in who we are. and little. has a lot to do with a dumb president. and we can call him dumb, because he says it all the time. he loves being dumb. not saying words right, or all the letters in a word, or not reading, and proud of it. this is what happens to a nation when you elect dumb. the dont look at problem, to find a solution. the only reason we could feel proud in 9/11 guiliani took control. he lead. bush was hiding, flyin all over the skies fuckin hiding and the mayor lead his city adn basically that day, the u.s.

not a fan of the mayor. dont like him. (tht i have to be sure to put that in, wow)

but all the things to help people bush has gutted in 5 years. this is also the premise of repug small government, dont finance. hence, why we shouldnt vote repug. 5 years, bush has hallowed safety nets. those repugs want to fly without those nets. we are all going to get to now. and see how little we will be able to solve, as they come up.

reap what we sow. dont even remember what this thread is about.

oh ya..... bush strummin guitar
