Comments on: White House uses Photoshop http://thinkprogress.org/2005/08/31/white-house-illustrates/ Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:46:48 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Jeff http://thinkprogress.org/2005/08/31/white-house-illustrates/comment-page-1/#comment-118144 Jeff Thu, 01 Sep 2005 05:00:01 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/?p=1694#comment-118144 Last year, when Hurricane Charlie landed in Port Charlotte, Fl. So did Bush! My entire family lives in Port Charlotte and many had damage to their homes from Charlie. But Charlie was nothing like Katrina. Bush used Charlie as an excuse to visit good 'ol Jeb and help shore up his numbers with a red state, slowly turning blue. Well Bush doesn't have another brother in Lousiana or Mississippi, so why stop the plane? I guess that would almost be like working. Georgie doesn't do 'work', he just likes to explain ho much "hard work' it is fo fight a war, which he also has never done. What a piece of crap! Join me and about 250,000 others on the White House lawn on Sept. 24th to demand an end to the war, and to demand for the impeachment of Georgie! Go to www.votetoimpeach.org for more information!

He is a natural disaster. The hurricane was a national disaster -- the flooding of the cities is man-made -- namely Bush, aided by Haley Barbour and others. Bush who eliminated the funding the the shoring up of the levees as was started in the mid-90's, and Barbour for aiding Bush in getting the Kyoto treaty squashed. FEMA warned of this potential disaster in 2001! Bush ignored it like he ignored the PDB announcing Bin Laden's plans to attack America. He is a revolting POS - a disgusting frat-boy - a greedy and selfish, self-serving person who obviously never pays attention to sermons while in church. Oh, wait - I forgot, he likes Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, and Billy Graham -- they who hate all Arabs, women, and love money and power - he listens to those sermons very attentively.

The devistated woman was in tears. Darth, I think she would have chosen the cake-eating picture, too, because Bush was smiling instead of wearing his usual smirk.
