2. Saving lives is not politics. Appropriate medical evacuation
in a disaster is not politics. Law & Order is not politics. By simply claiming it is political - it implies they can change anything they want about the world and christianity and everything.. simply because they got elected (*) twice.

That is not the way the world works.

Good that the Dems are staying out of it. As long as they keep their mouths shut - the issue stays as clear as a bell.

Bush stood down the troops.

3. It ain't politics....people died and are dying
This is the mother of all clusterfucks. People have paid and are paying with their lives because of it. Anyone who says it's political is full of shit.

5. Political: "of or relating to government, , or the conduct of government"
That applies to this situation.

7. How about instead say this? "Bush and his cronies cut the vacation short"
"And go running late into New Orleans for a photo-op political show"

Now who's playing politics? Who's leaving them there? :crazy:

10. I keep thinking of a house fire
The fire dept. shows up hours late and doesn't spray water. And the home owner wouldn't be trying to kill them then and there?

When is the time to scream at the service? When you've left the restaurant? Recuperated from the wrong surgery? Pierced the wrong body part? Need any more examples for the wing nuts?

13. Everything is political. When thousands die needlessly and many more
experience misery, you better believe we're going to talk about political solutions to political problems.
