Republicans always look on the bright side...
The Shame

From WSJ's Washington Wire (sub req'd):

Two shaky House incumbents, Democrat Melancon and Republican Boustany, hope response to hurricane rallies voters behind them. House Republican campaign chief Reynolds touts chance to market conservative social-policy solutions; Rep. Baker of Baton Rouge is overheard telling lobbyists: "We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn't do it, but God did."

Baker explains later he didn't intend flippancy but has long wanted to improve low-income housing.

2. Impeach God!

They're draining the damn city and rebuilding!

If a deity is going to destroy a city, I want it done right. Where's His "salt the earth" rhetoric NOW? He's clearly incapable of managing the situation.

Sign this online petition to have Him removed.......


....well, you get the idea....
