Newsmax is reporting that it did not take long for liberal bloggers to blame hurricane Katrina on George Bush. Of course, the bloggers, as usual, lack any facts in their outrageous assertions.
A handful of liberal bloggers have wasted no time politicizing the Hurricane Katrina disaster, alleging that the Iraq war has stripped New Orleans of National Guard protection and blasting President Bush for not dealing with global warming.
“So far today, I’ve looked at Global Warming and Katrina and the crisis resulting from Louisiana’s National Guard being in Iraq instead of defending their state,” complains the “Swing State” blog.
Louisiana has about 11,500 members in its National Guard. About 3000 are deployed. 3500 have been called to duty for the hurricane and the balance can be called up if needed. I am pretty sure that it does not matter where the National Guard is, the hurricane would still come. Note to libs, when they say the President of the United States is the most powerful man in the World, they are not implying he has this kind of power. As for global warming, a theory that has yet to be proved, the theory has existed for a long time so I doubt Bush caused it.
Some more lunacy:
Over at the “American Blog,” they’ve started a “Hurricaine[sic] Bush Vacation Watch,” which is “keeping a tab on whether Bush is going to return to Washington to deal with this historically devastating hurricane, or whether he’s going to stay on vacation while a major American city faces imminent disaster.”
“Can’t you just see Bush staying on vacation while all this happens THEN touring the damage like he’s some kind of concerned hero?” the American Blogger griped.
First of all, what do they want him to do? Should he put on a red cape and fly into the hurricane and blow it back to sea? They all just complained that he wastes fuel when he travels now they want him to fly back to DC so he can fly back down south. Wouldn’t it make more sense and save fuel if he just went there from Crawford? Who said the libs had any sense?
This is the same prattle they had when the tsunami hit. What is Bush going to do? Well what the hell can he do? I am really glad that Bush was not alive about 2038 years ago or the ancient libs would have blamed him for Jesus getting nailed to the Cross.
More things Bush is responsible for:
- Extinction of dinosaurs
- The Holocaust
- The Dark Ages
- The plague
- The Civil War
- Watergate
- Monica Lewinski
Anyone care to add to the list?
