'they' are more worried about bush's image than helping the poor
Edited on Fri Sep-16-05 03:49 AM by mopaul
or rebuilding after katrina. why don't they just make jackson square the 'louisiana white house' as some have suggested? four trips and four photo ops into it, and the main concern seems not to be helping the storm victims, but helping bush the political victim.

once again, it's about the perception of bush, and the image of bush as a leader (don't make me laugh) than it is about actual results.

last night was a blatant attempt to re capture the so called bullhorn moment, after 9/11 when we were all manipulated into thinking bush was being decisive and leaderly. i wasn't impressed then, and i'm even less impressed now.

his 9/11 teflon mojo is gone.

3. No bullhorn moment here...
Only thing people are going to be saying--"How in the HELL is he going to pay for all this?!?"
