The President just gave an update on Gustav, but instead of showing any symptoms of conscience or mentioning the mistakes of Katrina he launched into a call for off shore drilling.
I've just seen it so I don't have a quote but I'm not surprised. Let's use this from now until November this is fantastic!
McCain got lucky that the President didn't speak at the convention yesterday. Bush is going to be a huge problem no matter what for him. It's hard to believe his advisers didn't warn him against that. There is a god.
EDIT: This is the worst possible time to call for off-shore drilling, as several people wrote already. Katrina hurt oil production for months and Gustav will no doubt cause some problems for the off-shore rigs. Who would think that today is a good day to call for off-shore drilling?
The President probably thought that because of Gustav oil prices will spike. Therefore, he can use the increased price of oil to call for drilling.
Mr. President today is not the day to be political. Asshole.
Edit: President Bush is speaking at the convention today woohoo!!!!!!!!!
Celebrate good times come on! Thanks guys.
