Card: States he had to "manage" chimp's expectations.."warned Bush"
Nutshell: idiot in chief can't even have a normal, spontaneous human reaction..has to be "managed" by his handlers.

White House chief of staff Andy Card said Wednesday that although the emotions from the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina have passed, there is still need for government help. He said he warned Bush to be prepared to see lingering destruction.


"I had to manage his expectations this morning, because while there has great progress, there continues to be great need -- indescribable need," Card said in a speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

5. Clarification, please ...
He warned Bush to be prepared to see lingering destruction ...

Because Bush is too f*cking stupid to realize the destruction didn't 'disappear' all by itself?

Or was he talking about the 'lingering destruction' to Bush's credibility and poll numbers?

Just wonderin' ...

6. I watched the Card Speech
and there was one portion I wholeheartedly agreed with. Card talked about America at war and asked people in the audience if he or she had sacraficed anything. I am glad at least one conservative mentioned sacrafice.

10. Told him behave and he'd get to go see a zillionaire soon...
just make a lame "I give a rat's ass" pit stop in NO and then:


<same article>:

Before returning to Washington Thursday night, Bush planned to attend a Republican National Committee fundraiser at the sprawling oceanfront estate of Dwight Schar in Palm Beach, Fla. Schar is CEO of NVR Homes, a major homebuilder and mortgage banking company, and co-owner of the Washington Redskins football team. He raised more than $200,000 for Bush's re-election campaign.

12. Well, there's the "buildin boom in Mizzippi" that Smirky talked
about in his speechifyin today. How come Halliburton is not getting all of the contracts? or is Halliburton just for NOLA?

Sweet Jesus. The corruption continues.

19. Makes one wonder about the levees..
even if one is not prone to believing he "crazy" conspiracy theorists. Maybe not actively causing their demise, but through willful neglect, knowing the potential of one perfect storm....
