President Bush was scheduled to worship at a small Methodist Church outside Washington, D.C. as part of Karl Rove’s campaign to reverse Bush’s rapidly deteriorating approval ratings. A week before the visit, Rove called on the Methodist Bishop who was scheduled to preach on the chosen Sunday. “As you know, Bishop,” began Rove, “we’ve been getting a lot of bad publicity among Methodists because of the president’s position on stem cell research and the like. We’d gladly arrange for Jack Abramoff’s friends to make a contribution of $100,000 to the church if during your sermon you would say that President Bush is a saint.”
The Bishop thought about it for a few minutes, and finally said, “This parish is in rather desperate need of funds … I’ll agree to do it.”
The following Sunday, Bush pompously showed up for the photo op, looking especially smug even while attempting to appear pious.
After making a few announcements, the Bishop began his homily: “George W. Bush is a petty, vindictive, sanctimonious hypocrite and a nitwit.
He is a liar, a cheat, and a low-intelligence weasel with the world’s largest chip on his shoulder.
He used every dirty election trick in the book and still lost, but his toadies in the Supreme Court appointed him.
He lied about his military record in which he used special privilege to avoid combat, and then had the gall to dress up and pose on an aircraft carrier before a banner stating “Mission Accomplished.”
He invaded a sovereign country for oil and war profiteering, turning Iraq into a training ground for terrorists who would destroy our country.
He continues to confuse the American people by insisting on a nonexistent connection between the horrors of 9/11 and the reason he started his war in Iraq.
He routinely appoints incompetent and unqualified cronies to high-level federal government positions and as a result, hundreds and hundreds of Americans died tragically in New Orleans.
He lets corporate polluters despoil God’s creation and doom our planet. He uses fear-mongering to justify warrantless spying on American citizens, in clear violation of our Constitution.
He is so psychotic and megalomaniacal that he believes that he was chosen by God.
He is the worst example of a Methodist I have ever personally known.
But compared to Dick Cheney and Karl Rove and the rest of the evil fascist bastards in this administration, George W. Bush is a saint.

I hope at least some of the Congress critters read this and take note but I suspect that even if they do they will still do the worst thing.
DHS to run cybersecurity exercise
Glad I got all (most) of my stuff backed up off line. Guess I will get current backups of all the sites just in case they do the job we all know they are capable of. 🙁

It seems more and more that the only thing that is “Necessary” is to oust the entire thieving bunch and start over. Every day I read more and more about Alfred E. Prez sucking up to his rich buddies and saying Fark the poor and less fortunate but this list is unbeleaveable. In any past administration the entire country would be howling for his head on a platter. But the press is so cowed that nothing is getting done. Just don’t understand it…

Sounds like the governator is trying to outdo Alfred E. Bushie in highly visible stupidity. Either that or the Republican party as a whole is planing on taking the next few years off by forcing every one with half a brain to vote against them.

Boing Boing: Katrina: Baghdad on the Bayou

Sounds extremely reasonable to me. The poor lived in the lowest areas and are the ones it is hardest to get to leave an area. This way they are all gone with only a few thousand dead.

Imagine that! They don’t want the folks they have incarcerated inside to have ANY news. Keep them in the dark and they will be more passive. Let them see just how BAD the gov has screwed up on this one and things just might get out of hand…
My take on this is – Fire that sucker up and run it illegal…
