That's More Like It

I lambasted Clinton on Saturday for his initial response to Bushco's feeble effort, if you can call it that, as a result of Katrina's devastation, but this is a much more realistic analysis. Say what you want about him, but he's way too smart to actually believe what he said standing next to Dubya a couple of days ago.

Also, it's nice to see the Bush clan continuing to win popularity by blaming others for their mistakes. Memo to H.W. - The New York Times isn't responsible for the deaths of what could turn out to be 10,000 people, if New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin's grim estimate is correct. Your boneheaded progeny (who, of course, is now blaming Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco - also see "Bush and Blanco" at The Daily Kos yesterday) took care of that on his own (and kudos to Blanco for bringing on former FEMA director James Lee Witt to oversee the recovery efforts, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune).
