Bush, you're a heckuva leader
First Bush says no one knew the levees could break, despite countless documented warnings. Then he claims that his underqualified appointee Brownie did a heckuva job. Next, his wife refers to Katrina as Corrina. Now, it becomes clear that no one told him that Brownie resigned:
Q. Can you tell us, have you accepted the resignation of Michael Brown, or have you heard about it?
THE PRESIDENT: I haven't -- no, I have not talked to Michael Brown -- or Mike Chertoff; that's who I'd talk to. As you know, I've been working. And when I get on Air Force One, I will call back to Washington. But I've been on the move.
Q. Our understanding is he has resigned, he's made a statement. Would that be appropriate --
THE PRESIDENT: I haven't talked to Mike Chertoff yet, and that's what I intend to do when I get on the plane. You know, I -- you probably -- maybe you know something I don't know, but as you know, we've been working, and I haven't had a chance to get on the phone. [Via Wonkette]

Jake, you are absolutely brilliant! How long did it take you to think up such a glorious response.

Yes. Bush is not a good leader. Fuck leaders, anyway.
Now that it's been established that Bush is completely out of touch with the common people (and what a surprise) it's high time to start thinking about throwing out all the other "leaders" that pollute our government.
Sad thing is, come 2006 & 2008, we will see the same faces...once again.
And this is because the American people apparently LIKE these leaders....since they keep voting them back in.
So a Democrat will most likely be the next president in 2008. Whoever it is...it will be more of the same shit. Unless the American people finally get up off their ass and take responsibility for their own government by NOT electing those who never seem to want to go away.

Wow, you had to rely on Wonkette for that quote? You couldn't find it through any legit sources? Oh, wait, that's all blogs are nowadays. Rhetoric, followed by links to AP and CNN stories. Brilliant.

Here is an idea. Instead of using this message board to bitch about Bush's lack of leadership skills(I think this has been well established)why don't we find away to use it as a means to help those who are effected by this crisis. It seems this site is more interested in making Bush look foolish(he doesn't need help) than helping people.
