Thomas takes a look at the insane desire of the left to blame everything that ever might happen in the world on Bush. Including hurricanes. And the existence of masoleums. And the construction of towns below sea level - before he was born. The whole post is beautiful, but one part in particular hit home in a special way:
This is obscene. It's actually worse than obscene, because not all of those bodies floating down there right now are from the mausoleums. How distorted is our political discourse -- excuse me, their political discourse -- that they start pointing fingers before the bodies are in the damned ground? We haven't even buried the dead yet, and they're trying to pin the untold lives and livelihoods lost on an opponent for political gain. I'd say something about shame, but the Left long ago forgot that.
Gee, guys, if you have the courage of your convictions, join the National Guard. They could use a few, ahem, bodies right now. Or at least act out your more lurid dreams and head down to New Orleans or Gulfport. Grab a body floating by. Reporters are thick on the ground -- scream at Bush and shake the body in front of the camera to good effect.
*wiping eyes* It's just... so... beautiful!
Seem to me that the mayor of New Orleans has not only expressed his frustrations before the whole world, he has showen us his lack of manly charecter. He blames and condems everyone but himself for failures. I have always contended that the majority of Americans would parish because we have become a nation of spoiled brats. I see people bemoaning about loseing all their stuff, we are a nation of STUFF accumelators. Maslow points out that there are only four things needed to survive, Food, Water, Shelter and Love. People know not how to forge for food, they think food must be pre-packaged, water must be bottled, shelter must be appraised at over 100K and that Love is SEX.
"We reap what we sow"
As for looters, The law applies to law breakers, not the law keepers. I say, with the exception of those looting food, the rest should be shot to mame, those commiting rape or murder, should be shot to death.
Here we go again, the bleeding heart left making excuses for the demented, wishing to appear to the rest of us as mercyfull and full of grace. This is the hight of arrogance and flys in the face of God who warns that "athority does not carry the sword invain." I sy shoot the bastards. "Twice even"
In the words of Val Kilmer in Tomestone. "Make no mistake about it, it is not revenge that he seeks, It's accounting."
