I simply cannot believe how low some folks can stoop in the wake of such a terrible dissaster. To use this as ammunition against your least favorite political leader(s) once again shows the true colors of some.

Like the Iraqi war, it has become very clear that the dead bodies in this dissaster mean nothing more than opportunity to this ilk. Opportunity to once again engage in their "intellectual" and political debates. They could care less about the people; it's all about their own need to win the debate. These poor folks simply provide another talking point that they can examine in their (now very obviously) inhumane and detached manner. I see far more jumping for glee at another "Bush failure" than outpouring of sympathy or relief for the victims.

What saddens me almost as much is the knowledge that many of these people celebrating "Bush's failure" are brighter than that. I'm relatively confident that the feds have no emergency plan for Lynnwood, Washington. Or Carmichael, California. Or any other town for that matter. That is why we elect local officials. We all know better than to think that the federal government can (or should) have that level of involvement in our local and state governments.

So, knowing that the "Bush failed" crowd understands that, what is the obvious conclusion to be drawn? They simply do not care that they are lying, or that we know they are lying. That is immaterial when there is a political adversary to roast. They understand that their constant wailing of their concocted lie will lead to its adoption as fact by the less educated, and the lazy media-duped population. Keep up the mantra "Bush failed" (just like the "Bush lied" mantra) long enough and it will become the truth for many. These folks that are using this tragedy in this manner should be ashamed, they should be very ashamed. The problem is, I no longer believe they are capable of feeling shame.
