Mark Morford and Hurricane Katrina

It’s been interesting, watching the events of Hurricane Katrina play out in the political spectrum. After several days of saying, “Gosh, isn’t anyone going to notice that the majority of people who did not escape were poor blacks?” Yahoo! News and the Associated Press published this article: Bush Denies Racial Component to Response. Here is another scathing opinion by Mark Morford, George W. Bush Still Rocks!
Stop criticizing! The rich man’s CEO president is executing his job requirements perfectly. Actually, while there is a lot of criticism directed toward George W.

I mean, who really believes Bush is in charge, anyway? (Just type in “failure” and see what I mean.) Mark Fiore also had something to say about it (big surprise). And as for me? *sigh* There’s not much to say anymore, is there? Just to say, thank you to the rescuers that risked their lives (and live gunmen) to get people out. Thank you to the Air Force helicopter pilots that stopped and rescued 150 people (and received a reprimand from their commanding officer because of it). Thank you to the people that extended a hand to someone else in need, whether or not it was caught on tape via news crews. And thank you to those, both overseas and at home, who have contributed to relief efforts. We are not the sum total of our government…
