Larisa Alexandrovna: Bush "a headless horseman with stuffed pockets"
Mr. Bush, Go Cheney Yourself!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/larisa-alexandrovna/mr-bush-go-cheney-yours_b_6528.html

We have no leadership, no captain at the helm as it were. We are, in effect, being led from disaster to disaster by a headless horseman run amok with stuffed pockets and an empty conscience.

On September 11, 2001, The Vacationing and un-elected President of this country was tooling around on his holiday and even making time to fit in a little PR in Florida too.

Later it was the "bring it on" hubris of a boy-king, who had spent his entire life doing absolutely nothing of value, now deciding the fate of thousands upon thousands of people.

So what happens when, once again, our leadership is sun-bathing and there is a national emergency? What happens when children are drowning in attics while others are burning in the sun on Cajun hot roofs? What happens to a great city like New Orleans when funding for emergency spending has been cut so that that Bush can play war, "toys can kill toys?"
