But what you will see is Mayor Nagin's quote, "If government can't get you your check on time, it says you need to do something . . . It says your neighbors need to come together and all you need to do is cook a pot of red beans and they'll bring over the hammers and nails."

Glad to see Mayor Nagin has his priorities straight - Get that government check first - before you help yourself or your neighbors.

Farting George Bush Doll - The Pull My Finger President
BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt)
Okay, okay, just remember, Bush is the one that enjoys passing gas and humiliating staff members, according to U.S. News and World Report.

Just read the BuzzFlash editorial -- "Unbalanced, Over the Top, and Farting for Laughs: Leader of the Free World?" -- about our President who takes great pleasure in Fart jokes and passing gas to humiliate aides. Sadly, we are not making this up.

So,we just couldn't resist honoring Bush with a delightful likeness in the true spirit of his presidency!

The makers of this doll describe it this way: "Not only does he fart, he sings and shakes too! Standing over 8" tallm pull the Commander in Chiefs finger and he'll shake, fart and say 7 wacky phrases and a fart song in the off-beat tradition of our great leader."

We brought one to a gathering a couple of years back and people were laughing so hard that they were crying. But we decided not to offer it as a BuzzFlash premium because it seemed too "gassy." Little did we know at the time that it was actually a tribute to Bush's favorite pastime in the White House!

So we're liberated. We feel right back in the back of the second grade classroom, where George W. breaks wind and smirks for kicks!

"You should see the closet full of whoopee cushions I've collected. George is just a heap of laughs." -- Laura Bush

Poor DonKey, he's such a tool, he doesn't even realize his quote has refuted his own argument. Nagin said that cooking beans will bring out the neighbors.

How's that KoolAid, DonKey?

Around our house, the favorite flavor was grape, and none of that sugarless stuff either.

I included the full quote because, in the end, Mayor Nagin did acknowledge what they needed to do - it just seems typical for party city - get the gubment money first -- then if the gubment doesn't bail you out, get to work.

Seems like it should be the other way around. Get off your butt and dig out - which many good New Orleanians did, despite the failure in their local leadership.

And if they drank as much grape kool-aid as I did growing up, they'd have plenty of energy to get the work done.

Don, if you had bothered to watch Spike Lee's movie on Katrina last night you'd think differently today about making fun of Nagin. I'm amazed no one drown Bush yesterday when he was visiting. It would have been such poetic justice.

Jethro, still battling our registration process, asks that I post the following:

"Strictly from the human interest angle, I'd be interested in knowing if there's anybody out there, Rep., Dem., or Other, who believes George W. Bush's statement to NBC's Brian Williams the other day that he read "three Shakespeares" during his vacation. (The Bard of Avon, that is, not the fishing tackle folks.)

If not, can we call him a liar?"

George should have read a biography of Eisenhower. It's clear he hasn't.

". . . success cannot be advertised" . . . "failure cannot be explained."
Dwight David Eisenhower, 1959

Filmmakers have their own agenda. Present the facts you like and edit out the unhelpful ones. Viewers then rave about films that support their particular agenda and dismiss films that don't support their belief. You illustrate my point.

If a movie isn't fictional action entertainment, I probably don't waste time watching it. Because most of the stuff on the screen is all pretty much fictional entertainment.

Enjoy it with your popcorn . . . and lots of grains of salt.

I went insane last night watching the news...just for a few seconds I actually felt sorry for Bush as Brian Williams kept trying to get him to elaborate on what he read in the Camus book. You could see the fear in Georgie's eyes as he changed the subject as fast as he could. He has no more read Camus than I have. It's really telling when the media all turn into Mike Wallace and tries to get the bad guy to fess up....and the bad guy is the President of the United States.

I'm just hoping I can stand 2 more years of being embarrassed to be an American and more importantly I hope the millions and millions who now hate us won't think we're all as stupid as Bush or they'll come riding over the borders whompin and a whompin and our geese will be collectively cooked.

Clinton went to New Orleans?

I caught that interview, DBI, and I, too, ALMOST felt sorry for Bush. Did ya notice how Bush tried to do the dominate thing with Williams?

No, I don't believe Bush could make it through a complete piece of Shakespeare...without help.

BTW...I lost an entire reply to nony on another thread (and, yeah I know how to save my stuff). If I lose this when I go to post...well...I'll cuss...LOUDLY!

Yeah, Bush is stupid!!!!

Hmmm, I wonder. How would John Kerry have done? He had a lower SAT score than Bush.

Ah but nony, Kerry has a much larger penis.
