Quote of the Day
Silvio Berlusconi on the 17,000 Italians left homeless by the Abruzzo earthquake:
They should see it like a weekend of camping.
George W. Bush is just kicking himself for not using that little gem in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

If Bush doesn't kick himself...can we?

Possibly the best post ever by Bible Girl.
.
"berlusconi" is Italian for "brownie." -

Amy, you are an idiot. Such a comment is beneath contempt. You ought to be fired on the spot.

FT: Are you hitting on Amy? The way you're piling on the praise, does Mrs. Tuck suspect?

Great post Amy. Say something nasty about Cheney and I'll set the trick or treaters free.
-
6
Unbelievable. Anything, and I mean anything, that Amy writes is now tainted. Good job, Amy, trashing your rep as a journalist.

spob ye brainless lubber, what be ye talkin' about??? After all th' slimy venom ye been spittin' regardin' President Obama, a wee reference t' yer hero's wreck o' a response t' Katrina be contemptible? Be ye honestly believin' Bush had a right ship-shape dandy response t' th' hurricane?
.
Ye been raidin' th' rum rations again, mate! -

Amy - do you mind if I call you Amy? - you've gone and done it this time. Don't you know that disagreeing with spob about anything is proof of stupidity and treason? -
9
pirate wench, are you an idiot as well? The issue, which may escape you, is not whether Bush (as opposed to Nagin and Blanco) screwed the pooch on Katrina, but whether he was indifferent to the suffering of those made homeless by Katrina. And that is a nasty nasty thing to say and is totally without any basis.
.
And with respect to "slimy venom", you name one thing I have said about Obama isn't a legitimate comment on positions he's taken or statements he's made. Name one.
.
Did you get dropped on your head as a child? -
10
For a journalist to write such a thing is ridiculous. There is no evidence whatsoever that Bush would have mocked the suffering of those made homeless by Katrina.
-
11
After witnessing Obama's world wind tour, how many Italians do you think want to trade leaders right about now?
-
12
Pirate wench. Cover yourself with hot butter and carry lemon juice just in case there's a spobster loose!
-
13
@sacredh - sorry, I lost your comment in the spob.
.
Hitting on Amy would be proof of . . . hmm. That's a toughie. Something too depressing to even to contemplate, I guess. Serious trouble with my fantasy life, at the very least. -
14
OOOh, God, He's vengeful!
-
15
Let's not forget George W. Bush's mother's famous comment upon touring the Astrodome in Houston, home to many Katrina refugees, that "so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this, this is working very well for them."
-
16
The intellectual dishonesty and stupidity here is unbelievable.
-
17
Don't be too hard on yourself spob. We all get carried away.

18
The intellectual dishonesty and stupidity here is unbelievable.

Oh, so it's our fault? -

Actually spob, you are the idiot:

.
Also, Bush cancelled the ACE Levee Modernization Project:

.
Also, Bush installed, as policy the practice not disclosing destinations of those boarding evacuation buses. -

This event was where the Gretna Police blocked the only evacuation route. -

spob!
.
Stand to. I'm going to take you down... -
23
Sorry, guys.
.
Spob has hit a nerve with me. I'm taking him down. -
24
53-spob is so hilariously over the top it HAS to be a parody. Has anyone ever seen SG and spob in the same room?
-

"And that is a nasty nasty thing to say and is totally without any basis."
.
It is absolutely justifiable.
