Video nasty

Imagine the scenario... you are the leader of a nation and have been told an ecological disaster is about to take place on your land. What would you do?

Okay, stop shouting. I know that isn't much to go on and you probably want to ask a dozen questions before making up your minds. That's as long as your name isn't George W. Bush, that is...

Newly released video footage shows the fuckwit himself in his final briefing on the incoming Hurricane Katrina during which he did not ask a single question. Not one. When faced with the hard reality that the storm could cause massive fatalities did he once utter, "How can we get them out?". No. Or even just "How can we prepare and warn these people enough to lessen the damage?". Did he fuck! I know that in a situation like this it must be hard, but come on... not even asking "What can we do?". Cunt.

Of course he then told State Officials that they were "fully prepared" for the event... Is that "Fully prepared and ready to mobilize in an instant in order to get down there and save peoples lives". Or was it more like "Fully prepared to lose a bunch of largely poor, mostly black folk who wouldn't vote for us if they bothered voting anyway". Well, lets face it - option two may be stretching it slightly but at least it is not as much of a fantasy as option one.

In the damning video Bush is warned by Max Mayfield, Director of the National Hurricane Centre in Miami, that the levees that hold back Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans are unlikely to stand. On September the 1st Bush is quoted saying "I do not think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees". Cunting cunt!

Bush's popularity is apparently at an all-time low. Not that that's really much comfort to the many who lost their lives while he sat on his hands....

I'll say it one last time. Utter cunt.

Cheers m'dears!
