Rockey To Katrina Victims: Stop ‘Sitting Around and Complaining’ About Bush and ‘Be Thankful For What We Got’

Last week, Katrina survivor (and former right-wing politician) Rockey Vaccarella visited the White House and said, “I just wish the President could have another term in office.” Subsequently, Rockey was plastered on the White House website homepage and featured in President Bush’s weekly radio address.

Now, the President’s preferred representative of Hurricane Katrina is lashing out at other victims. Today on Fox, Rocky said that victims of the Hurricane should stop “sitting around and complaining” about the Bush administration and instead “be thankful for what we got.”
