[speaking for]The Guard's a bit busy right now fighting an unjust war in Iraq ... See, the disaster is all Bush's fault. First, for causing global warming and making there be more hurricanes, and now any errors related to the recovery (based on disaster plans that have been in place, but refined) since the 60s) is also Bush's Fault. Oh, and it's Bush's fault that all the money that was given to New Orleans over the last 35 years for preparation for such a thing was wasted (instead it went into the pockets of possibly the most corrupt municipal government in the country).[/the left]
I did not, incidentally, make any of that up. I was driving through New Jersey yesterday and about halfway up the Garden State could no longer pick up my radio station. So I ended up channel surfing and found Air America. I have never listened to Air America. I actually put up with about 15 minutes of the above crap before I surfed around to find something tolerable to listen to.
