New letter to the editor. Marie Antoinette strikes again.
Marie Antoinette strikes again.

Is this the new French Revolution unfolding, or what?

While the President is in Arizona, eating cake with John McCain during a disaster, his mother, Marie, er, Barbara Bush, is talking about how well things are working out for the New Orleans evacuees, since they’re all underprivileged any way. I guess she couldn’t bother her “beautiful mind” to think about the horrors of people dying on rooftops for lack of food, water, and medicine. Maybe they should have just borrowed an oil company’s jet, and took off to a resort somewhere.

Then along comes Karen Hughes to tell us that the crimes in New Orleans are tarnishing our reputation abroad. Which crimes are you referring to Karen? People trying to find food and water for their families, or the crime perpetrated by your boss on the entire gulf states region?

Hint: Four years ago the entire world stood by us after the tragedy of 9/11. Since then you, your boss, and several others have done everything possible, through sheer incompetence and deceit to tarnish our reputation abroad. Abu Gharaib, illegal wars, Kyoto, Guantanamo, and finally, this unnecessary disaster in New Orleans.

4. Yes
It went to the St. Pete Times, and The Tampa Tribune.

5. No, Miz Hughes, I'm terribly sorry, but
it's the crimes in Iraq that are tarnishing our reputation abroad. But thanks for playing!
:hi:
