I couldn't take my eyes off the news yesterday. From the moment I got home until I had to go to work. I was thankful for the diversion

Bravo Bill, I couldn't agree with you more. I've chosen to direct my anger towards the federal government, as I don't think that's a misplaced or destructive place to go with it. What really frosts my cookies is that Louisiana is arguably the poorest state in our union, how the FUCK were the poor and homeless supposed to leave without a public evacuation system? I heard that they stopped running Greyhound through LA 2 days before the hurricane hit. And the government's reaction was pretty much, "If you have a car, leave town. If not, start growing gills." Also, this is from an article I read today

i didnt hear about bush uttering a peep for a few days. i saw bush sr. and clinton talk about relief before that fucking bastard said one peep.
i hope the democrats pound on the issue of bush's negligence and general lack of interest and slowness of response as much as he tried to milk the legacy of 9/11. i would say impeach but we would probably end up with jean claude van dam or chuck norris in the white house.

What kills me is, wasn't Clinton the ruination of this country? Wasn't he the one who damned us all with his loose morals, fast women, and liberality? I wonder how it felt to turn to His Royal Evilness for help.
Of course, why does Bush need former Presidents to help? He seems to be managing a foreign war just fine. Right?
you can't look at clinton's generosity and social conscience due to the looming shadow his malevolent cock hangs over this fair land. helping people always has to come behind not getting your dick sucked.
the saddest thing? bush had to run to DADDY, and bring clinton around so he wouldnt be seen as a moronic and inept halfwit who suckered his way into another presidential term yet who has to run home after he fucked up and doesnt know what to do. say what you will about bush sr, but at least when he speaks the gears turning in his head are the actual application of knowledge and factual knowledge vs trying to remember the crib notes his handlers just gave him.
i have to stop from watching it. the worst is when i stop and then my imagination takes over. i am thankful i have been way too busy to watch any more news footage, because it makes me too angry.
i just need to give some money to help out and calm down.
I have been crying almost all day. I couldn't tear my eyes away from CNN. My heart is heavy... I feel extreme anger and rage to helplessness and grief. Those poor people. It's apocalyptic and horrible. :(
I relate to everything you said here. *sigh*
I did not get a chance to catch up with LJ yeterday, buw when you mentioned your yesterday's post, I went back and read it. And I actually want to thank you... it made me chuckle just a bit and I think I needed it after crying and having a headache all day.
Anyway, so thank you. You are a very good man, Bill. I am lucky to know you... no one would ever think of you as insensitive; if anything you are a softie.
i did the same thing last night. i sat there and watched the horror and felt sick and cried and got REALLY angry. these poor people were completely abandoned by their government. the heads of all these federal agencies are now making public statements about how well things are going and people are dying in the streets as i type this. what the fuck is going on? i feel like i'm consumed with hate and rage and i don't like that feeling. it's like what you're saying about those horrible thugs in nola, and the roots of violence. i now want to crack some skulls.
i like how they keep pointing out that he is going to fly over the wreckage in a helicopter. like that is going to help anything.
then i realized it was probably just the real people trying to help getting him out of the way, the way a mother gives the unruly child his own cake to mangle during birthday parties.
well, what else can they do with him? there is no brush to clear down there.
i have this ridiculous image in my mind of the secret service guys down in crawford replacing the brush at night. when i worked with alzheimers patients, we used to give them towels to fold and then we'd just unfold all of them and have them start all over.

I am so furious with Bush right now: http://news.yahoo.com/photo/050830/480/capm10208301856
When Rome burned, Nero fiddled. When New Orleans is being wiped out, Bush strums a guitar. >:\
