15 months in office, and this president is the proud owner of a whole bunch of Katrinas.
From Media Matters:
- H1N1 flu
- Fort Hood shootings
- Kentucky Ice storms
- Haiti earthquake
- GM bankruptcy
- Christmas Day Underwear Bomber
- Housing policies in Chicago (No kidding)
And now the disaster in the Gulf.
This is bullshit with a capital B. At least 1,836 people lost their lives in Katrina and George Bush couldn't care less about a bunch of poor black people in New Orleans. This horrific image (i'm leaving space because it's really a very difficult picture) was Katrina (THOMAS DWORZAK/Time Magazine):

George Bush' stupidity and incompetence now became the standard. The Right and the MSM can't help themselves, they're just praying for Obama's Katrina and Obama's 9/11. The notion that dead people in some terrible disaster will be the only way for Republicans and their partners in the media to "redeem" Bush' presidency, is downright sick and sickening.
