FIRST I HAVE TO APOLOGIZE THIS WHOLE POST WILL BE IN A LARGE LETTERS. I HAVE A BLOWN EYEBALL- SO IT WILL BE THIS SIZE SO I CAN READ IT.
HERE'S THE THING GEORGE, YOUR VACATION ACTUALLY ENDED WEEKS AGO- BUT WHEN KATRINA HIT- IT ACTUALLY ENDED FOR GOOD- 6:50 AM VERY EARLY MONDAY MORNING. TRUTHFULLY YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE BACK TO DC ON SATURDAY MORNING EARLY WHEN EVERY WEATHERMAN WORTH HIS SALT WAS PERDICTING DEVASTATION FOR THE GULF COAST.
(I AM AGAIN NOT GOING TO BE NICE HERE- RAISED BY SOUTHERN WOMEN AND ALSO HAVING RIDDEN OUT A FEW HURRICANES DOWN SOUTH- I FEEL I MIGHT KNOW MORE THAN KING CHICKEN SHIT ABOUT THIS. I ALSO HAVE FEMA AND RED CROSS TRAINING ABOUT THIS, AND AS A NURSE I KNOW 1000'S ARE NOW ENDANGERED BECAUSE OF THE KING'S INCOMPETENCE).
AND WE KNOW IT TOOK FIVE DAYS FOR THE KING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE TSUNAMI IN INDONESIA..BUT HELL THIS IS RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, IN HIS BACKYARD, AND MILLIONS ARE EFFECTED.
FIRST OFF THE GUARD - ALL GUARD SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLACED ON ALERT ON SATURDAY- READYING ALL FLIGHT VEHICLES, AND AMPHIBIAN VEHICLES, BOATS. ALL MEDIC TEAMS AND RESCUE TEAMS SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE READY AND PUT IN PLACE IN TENNESSEE. READY TO MOBILIZE TO THE GULF STATES. NATIONAL GUARD - HALF THAT ARE IN IRAQ- WHEN THEY SHOULD BE HERE DOING WHAT THEY WERE TRAINED TO DO= TAKING CARE OF THEIR NEIGHBORS AT HOME. IT IS NOW 6PM TUESDAY- AND YOU MADE A LITTLE PEEVISH SPEECH FROM YOUR "PARTY" /CELEBRATION OUT ON NAVY SHIP IN SAN DIEGO- YOU HAD PLANNED TO GIVE A BIG "AXIS OF EVIL SPEECH" BUT INSTEAD THE STORM SEEMS TO HAVE RAINED ON YOUR PARADE.
SO IN YOUR SPEECH ON THE SHIP YOU GAVE OUT SOME IRRITATED ADVICE- BUT REALLY DID NOT OFFER YOUR CONDOLENCES OR SUPPORT TO THE POOR FOLKS DOWN SOUTH. YOU ONCE AGAIN SEEM IRRITATED THAT THEY WERE NEEDING TO BE RESCUED. THOUSANDS NEED WATER, FOOD, SHELTER,HEALTHCARE. THEY NEEDED YOU TO STATE THAT THE GUARD IS ON THE WAY. HERE IT IS 36 HOURS INTO THIS CATOSTOPHRE, AND NOT A PEEP FROM DHHS, HOMELAND SECURITY, EPA, DEPT OF ENERGY, YES WE HAVE HEARD FROM FEMA- BUT AGAIN JUST LIKE AFTER 911 WE LEFT SURFING THE CHANNELS TO ATTEMPT TO FIND OUT IF PEOPLE ARE BEING CARED FOR.
THOUSANDS - 25,000 IN THE DOME WITH A SHREDDED ROOF- AND MINIMAL POWER....AND MINIMAL MANPOWER, WATER RSING OUTSIDE- WAIST HIGH BY 6PM, ONE SUICIDE, 1000'S BROUGHT THERE...PLUCKED OFF ROOFS..AND BROUGHT TO THE HELL OF THE DOME. 1000'S SITTING IN THE DARK WONDERING HOW THEIR HOMES ARE , THEIR FAMILIES, THEIR NEIGHBORS. AND SOME ARE SICK, SOME POOR, SOME WITH PETS, OR RELATIVES THAT THEY COULD NOT LEAVE....THEY HAD NO CHOICE.
13% OF THE U.S. LIVES BELOW POVERTY LEVEL, SO YEAH, ATLEAST ONE THIRD OF THE 37 MILLION OF OUR POOR LIVE IN THE SOUTH, AND SO NOW 1000'S THAT WERE ALREADY POOR ARE NOW IN MORE DANGEROUS STRAIGHTS NEED THE GUARD TO ARRIVE WITH C5S', CHINOOKS,, AND AMPHIBIAN VEHICLES TO BRING FOOD AND WATER AND SHELTER, AND YEAH HOPE.
SEE HERE IS THE THING GEORGE THAT IS YOUR JOB- GO SIT AT THE WHITE HOUSE AND ORGANIZE , OR ATELAST ACT LIKE IT. AND GO ON THE AIR AND SAY THAT HELP IS ON THE WAY AND THE GUARD IS ON THE WAY. I MEAN I KNOW ATLEAST HALF TO THE GUARD IS OVER IN IRAQ, BUT YOU COULD OFFER THE GUARD HERE. NINETEEN STATES AND GOVERNORS HAVE OFFERED THEIR GUARD. ( THERE IS 31,000 AVAILABLE IN THE GULF STATES ALONE- ALTHOUGH WE DON'T KNOW IF DUE TO DOWN LINES AND COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS THOSE GUARD CAN BE REACHED) AND YET YOUR SILENCE AND ABSENCE IS PALPABLE.....;.ONCE AGAIN MISSING IN ACTION.
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR " I WAS SO SHOCKED- I DIDN'T KNOW HOW BAD IT WAS"
HURRICANE SEASON PEAKS EVERY YEAR AT THIS TIME- EVERY YEAR ON YOUR VACATION. IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER- TALK TO JEB- HE WOULD REMEMBER LAST YEAR.
1000'S WITH CHILDREN SICK RELATIVE, ELDERLY, THANK GOD FOR THE COAST GUARD HELPING PEOPLE BUST HOLES IN THEIR ROOFS....WHERE ARE YOU TONIGHT? DINING AT THE WEST WHITE HOUSE OR AT SOME PARTY IN SAN DIEGO ?
TO MY POOR READERS, PLEASE CALL THE RED CROSS AND SALVATION ARMY AND OFFER MONEY....
CHECK CRAIGLIST.COM IF YOU WANT TO OFFER SERVICES AND YOU LIVE IN THAT AREA.
VACATION IS OVER GEORGE, GET OFF YOUR ASS AND SIGN THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS THAT ARE NEEDED TO SAVE LIVES NOW, AND ALLOW THE GOVERNORS OF THESE STATES TO GET THE HELP AND THE GUARD THERE NOW, THEY NEED HELP- NOW

I do remember the watergate summer. I was in Greece. It was in August. There were big headlines: NIXON RESIGNS.
It was summer, and it was good.
