Disturbing

Back from NYC & Boston and ready to blog, so let's put on our classics and push things forward with this story from Nancy Pelosi about an exchange she had with with W.:
Pelosi, speaking at a news conference, said Brown had "absolutely no credentials" when Bush picked him to run FEMA.

She related that she urged Bush at the White House on Tuesday to fire Brown.

"He said, 'Why would I do that?'" Pelosi said.

"I said because of all that went wrong, of all that didn't go right last week.' And he said 'What didn't go right?'"

"Oblivious, in denial, dangerous," she added.
Oh Nancy, don't you know that you're already in the bullyboys' sights?

Another great story is about a shopper confronting Condi Rice in NYC (from Salon.com):
The White House sought to turn back the rising tide of anger among blacks by deputizing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. During the early days of the hurricane and flood, she had been vacationing in New York, taking in Monty Python's "Spamalot" and spending thousands on shoes at Ferragamo on Fifth Avenue. In the store, a fellow shopper reportedly confronted her, saying, "How dare you shop for shoes while thousands are dying and homeless!" -- prompting security men to bodily remove the woman. A week after the hurricane, Rice mounted the pulpit at a black church in Whistler, Ala. "The Lord Jesus Christ is going to come on time," she preached, "if we just wait."
You wait, we'll be helping the living the way "the Lord Jesus Christ" told us to you bloody heretic.

>sigh< So much evil, so little time.
