Bush looks PISSED OFF coming out of his meeting with Blanco

He looked seriously pissed off. Didn't say anything, just waved and waled to Marine One.

Someone didn't get his way it seems.

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

Hope she gave him an earful!

and take the blame.

DO IT FOR THE PEOPLE OF NO.

and lavished with lots of Thank You's which rightly never came. He is so used to getting HIS way or nothing.

Or Democrats?

When Bush was a GOVERNOR and Clinton was Prez and if Texas got slammed with the worst natural disaster in American history, would Bush agree to sign away the TX National Guard to the Feds? Especially after the feds sat on their asses for days and people were dying?

This is such an odd thing for him to get pissy over.

point

to turn over control to the FEDs even after Andrew and 4 Hurricanes last year.

Bush needs to go shove it where the sun don't shine. We're onto his tricks.

she is one brave lady!!..and she is holding off a military coup..what a lady!!! she will not turn over her authority..and she is a hero!!!!!!!!!

fly

crisis - wasn't able to do so... Davis gets reelected - and less than a year later - they fund a recall and get Arnie in place. They (bushco) simply get rid of anyone who doesn't comply - watch for a GOP sponsored recall effort in the next year.

has her back.

She needs to call another news conference and let the entire nation know what George W Bush had to say for 90 minutes.

She needs to get this out in the public in order to keep herself safe, if you catch my drift.

You just know the Bush people show up at meetings like this with your tax records, and the picture of you with your mistress, etc, etc.

She needs to let us know that she didn't accept an offer she couldn't refuse.

EVERYTHING out in the public. The only way to protect herself is to have everything on the record so there is no opportunity for anything to happen, either to her or her fight for her state.

tape the entire exchange. Oh, I hope she did.

She seems to be doing politically OK against the Chimp-In-Charge - while dealing with a catastrophy of this magnitude.

Maybe, just maybe, LA got a Huey Long political reincarnate - packaged in a persona the rethugs automatically dismiss - it's just a woman - and a democrat at that, what could she possibly know?

I hope she sticks it to him so hard he's still picking LA slivers out of his ass when Hurricane Fitzgerald strikes.


On Edit: Certainly helps reading comprehension when you remember to add the nouns. Doesn't it?

Bush will try to federalize mississippi and all the South, put it under Martial Law for Uncle Dick!

I hope she gave him a tongue lashing he'll never forget. Go Kathleen go!

I hope the liberal media (AAR) is ready to defend her and Mayor Nagin with well-prepared talking points, and that they don't let up. I can tell Rove and company are out to get them.

And she has a spine and won't.

he must be really put out.

I hope she was tough as hell to him.

<just me being snarky>

The Chimp will retaliate for this impudent behavior.

I hope he does retaliate. The whole country, the whole world, is watching. This would be proof positive of what a small minded little turd he is. He'd never get away with it.

Stay the course Gov Blanco, don't let them wear you down.

:rofl:

Really not good with business, unless there's TIF or tax breaks involved.

He and the Saudi King were passing notes to each other.

Even a peck on the cheek from Bush would be revolting.

be she's on his hit list and that's the signal to those who will carry it out?

:grr:

...is he going to kiss Haley Barbour, too?

I detest him with the fire of 1000 suns.

and whispered in his ear "I am in control here" that would have shut the little fucker up.

Which is all he really wants.

down to the nitty gritty and explain to Bush "you have at least one person you HAVE TO FIRE". Not knowing that diminishing the capacity for all government organizations to function is actually the plan, they put the screws to him (Brown did & said this). Now Bush has to fire Brownie & look like a fool for supporting him.

That would be my guess.

Blanco & all emergency workers in NO have the goods on "Brownie". As do all the FEMA workers who likely miss DeWitt. This isn't "intelligence" or "war on terror" where Bush & his incompetents can hide behind piles of lies using the "secrets act".

Oh - and they forgot to fawn all over him.

for a despicable coward like him.

JERKOFF REMOVED AND DEWITT TAKES CHARGE OF THINGS BECAUSE THIS WILL LOOK SO BAD FOR THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION.

HE HIRES A PERSON WITH NO EXPERIENCE WITH NATIONAL DISASTERS, CAN IT BE THAT THIS IS 85% OF THE REASON OF THE SLOW/NO RESPONSE!

he isn't comfortable dealing with people who won't let him have his own way.

God I love em.

kick

Last 90 minutes. No word whatsoever on what was said between them.

and you know how he reacts to that word

Boo fuckin' hoo!!

it would be the wrong thing. So why would she do something that is the wrong thing to do on both counts?If the GOPers in Congress and the Administration attempt to vilify her and if they give even the appearance of trying to coerce or blackmail her into giving the feds power by say, with holding money or supplied or aid, they can kiss Louisiann'a Cajun Ass Good Bye for the next twenty years.

They may be able to paint her as a bad lady in non-southern states, but that dont mean squat. The rest of the South is watching the showdown of states rights versus federal muscle, and the the GOP needs the Southern vote very badly in 2006.

Karl Rove is a moron who knows Texas Politics but not much else, apparently.

i don't have the link anymore and want to give all my future donations there. she's going to need all the help she can get.

please post it in a separate post and i will recommend it so it doesn't keep getting lost. hopefully, 4 other people will do the same. also email mods and ask them to add it to the HURRICANE DISASTER RELIEF list at the top of the page.

Please.
