How to Write an Editorial

As the bodies continue to rot with no pickup in the streets of New Orleans while Michael Brown makes professional firefighters from around the country hand out PR flyers, it’s more than time for someone to tell it like it is. Here’s a start:

Minneapolis Star-Tribune wins the print award for today.

Exactly what went […]

“What Didn’t Go Right?”

AP-This is what happens when a President freaks out from stress and fear. He lashes out at the dead, the dying, and those made homeless by a storm whose danger he virtually ignored:

At a news conference, Pelosi, D-Calif., said Bush’s choice for head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency had “absolutely no credentials.”

She […]

State of Emergency – Day 13

BAGHDAD — Two commanders today from the Louisiana National Guard in Iraq (256th Brigade) told a TV camera that 400 of the 3,000 National Guard soldiers in Iraq have lost homes or had families displaced by Katrina.

Most of the soldiers have been in contact with their families (many by e-mail), but about one or […]

BROWN STOPPED RESCUERS, TALKED PHOTO OP

THIS STORY is the end of Brown; if Bush does not fire him within the next 24 hours his Presidency itself may not survive. I am so disgusted I want to cry. This order, here on the FEMA web page for the world to see, is now part of this history-making news story. Newsweek should […]

“That’s a Talking Point”

When thousands of Americans die while the government does not act, and the President himself responds with a flurry of lies, some of the people who have been gladly carrying those lies for years get angry. They never thought they’d be associated with such an obvious coward and villain, and even the heartless members of […]

NAGIN FINDS E COLI IN NEW ORLEANS WATER AS COMBAT TROOPS PATROL EMPTY STREETS

Once again Nagin has done something that was the Federal Government’s job, while they continue to delay and stall. CNN has confirmed the same along with a horrific proportion of fecal bacteria from flooded sewage and animals. Tonight CNN interviewed the Surgeon General of the United States, who said with a straight face after 9 […]

Cheney and Bush Were on Vacation at the Same Time

This is just a factual observation that has just hit my brain like a sledgehammer: Bush is trying to use, as part of his own defense, the excuse that he and Cheney were unaware of events because they were both on vacation, Bush in Crawford until Wednesday (although Blanco declared a state of emergency and […]

BUSH ADMIN SWITCHES DEFENSES AGAIN

Rumsfeld is now pushing this idea: the local emergency people, being victims of the natural disaster themselves, “needed some time” to adjust to their “personal” situations and were “unable to respond” and this was the reason for the terrible delays. Eventually, his wonderful DoD stepped in under lickety-split orders from the heroic Bush (on Friday), […]

Heroism, Tragedy on the Water

This is what happens when a “war President” puts incompetent clowns in place, still there four years after 9/11, who don’t do anything to plan against an “utterly predictable” (Louisiana GOP Senator David Vitter) disaster. And never, ever forget: turn on any AM radio right now and you will hear the talking points being shouted […]

Newsweek Moved Bush’s Flyby to Tuesday

Not only have they not corrected the monstrous, anonymously Bush-sourced lie claiming that Louisiana never declared a state of emergency, they say that Bush flew over New Orleans on Tuesday instead of Wednesday, August 31st, the last day of his record-breaking vacation. This is like saying Lee Harvey Oswald was killed a month after President […]
