HEY! Let's take a guess as to what SPIN line ROVE will put on all this

[radwriter0555]

bush mess, lies, distraction, inattention and failure, so that it's all forgotten about in 2 weeks.

Come on, THINK like a ROVE. WHAT WILL KKKARL ROVE SAY that will end up being repeat ad nauseum to 'justify' bush's catastrophic failure here?

Because there will, as usual, be 2 - 3 lines used to write it all off.

We could start a pool, with squares and stuff.

Come on, let's put our tin foil thinking hats on and THINK LIKE A ROVE!

1. the local government never asked for help

and they should have left when they were told to.

[VolcanoJen]

12. "Nobody told those people to go to the Convention Center."

Those words were actually uttered by Mike "Baghdad" Brown, head of FEMA, last night.

Numerous times.

[mattclearing]

2. "There's not a lot the President can do in these situations"

Like when the right said that a President couldn't influence job growth.

A president can't control the weather.

They will ignore the budget cuts and never answer a question about them.

[killbotfactory]

3. No one could of predicted...

Don't politicize this...
They should have evacuated...
Bush is now on top of things...
It's all the locals fault...

Did I miss one?

[SammyWinstonJack]

6. Now is not the time to point fingers

:puke:

[MissB]

4. Local government

It's already a talking point being repeated on various other message boards that I check.

[nickgutierrez]

5. Blame the Governor of LA, blame the Mayor of NO.

"Blue" in a "Red State", you know.

[Oreo]

7. All they have is blame the local government

And everybody knows it won't stick.

One picture of a dead person sitting in the middle of thousands or dehydrated babies is enough to show the real story. The American people have been let down by their government.

[MissB]

10. That is just it.

The pictures tell the story. Americans, no matter what the political stripe, believe that there government is going to be there in a national disaster.

They're seeing the reality now, and it isn't pretty. That's why it won't stick. This hits every American.

[K-W]

They will blame the mayor, the governer, and probably the fema head.

Bush will be passing out waterbottles for a few days.

'nobody can stop a hurricane' etc.

[BlueJac]

8. It is a sick thought but...

Rove will think of some sick saying.

[ThoughtCriminal]

9. Rove will repackage the critisism

1 - Critics "Hate our brave Rescuer Workers"
2 - Critics are blaming Bush for the Hurricane
3 - Tragedy should not be politicized
4 - Critics are hurting our efforts
5 - Critics should be helping instead of "Second guessing"

[radwriter0555]

13. HEY! You should apply for rove's position when the fat little fucker keels

over from a stroke or heart attack.

Your comments are VERY good!!!

[Zenlitened]

11. "President can't send troops in if the states don't ask."

The same people who maturbate themselves into soft gooey puddles over Bush's "decisive leadership" will trot out this line.

Idiots.
