This from the Washington SLIMES!!!
Edited on Fri Sep-02-05 05:43 PM by AnnieBW
Okay, this is definitely a sign of the impending apocalypse. The Moonie paper, the Washington Slimes, had the following as their lead editorial:

We expected to see, many hours ago, the president we saw standing atop the ruin of the World Trade Center, rallying a dazed country to action. We're pleased he finally caught a ride home from his vacation, but he risks losing the one trait his critics have never dented: His ability to lead, and be seen leading.

He returns to the scene of the horror today, and that's all to the good. His presence will rally broken spirits. But he must crack heads, if bureaucratic heads need cracking, to get the food, water and medicine to the people crying for help in New Orleans and on the Mississippi coast. The list of things he has promised is a good list, but there is no time to dally, whether by land, sea or air. We should have delivered them yesterday. Americans are dying.


I'm going to post the link. It'll blow their webmaster's mind to find a link to DU... :D

1. WTF? "His ability to lead"?????
If he's a leader, I'm the pope. Kiss my ring you sons-a-bitches!
