Crawford, Tx paper accuses Bush of dereliction of duty, calls to impeach!
Lone Star Iconoclast 9/13/05

BUSH QUIT HIS JOB

...If a President will not act on a timely basis when faced with an emergency, then he must be replaced. Our national security is at stake, as are our lives.

...Dereliction of duty is too kind a terminology. So is impeachment as an end-result. He didn’t shirk his duties, he ran away from them.

The hurricane was an act of nature. The terror, murder, and human disaster that followed rest squarely on the shoulders of criminally inept agencies and the Administration that rules them.

During those long and painful days following the hurricane, we had no President. He flat-ass quit.

1. The Iconoclast........
has to be the biggest thorn in bush's side he's ever felt. It's tough when your "hometown" paper disses the crap out of you all the time. I wish the MSM would follow suit, but there's about as much chance of that happening as monkeys flying out of my butt. :shrug: Oh well! At least SOMEONE in the Press is saying what we've all been saying all along.

2. Remember Mr.bush has only lived there 5 2/3 yrs
He moved there right before being installed the first time. I am proud of the Iconoclast for all their coverage of Camp Casey.

Surely the Iconoclast doesn't think W should have cut this vacation short
when considering his inaction following 8-6-01 daily intelligence briefing when all the bells and whistles were going off. Best I recall, we weren't any more ready for the 9-11 terrorist attacks than we were for Katrina, So what's the big surprise? Besides the idolatrous throngs continue to shout: four more years, four more years.

4. Finally, some plain talk based in reality. But you can't quit something
you never started.

This boy king was never the president. It was lunacy to ever expect the chimperor to do anything presdential.

The GOP should never have given him the power to appoint his cronies. McCain et all should have appointed a few people who were worth something. Those fools knew he was only a name. This is on the GOP leadership's hands. They had the presidency, the house, the senate and all the committees. They had the power to place experts, and they let a child/drunk fill those jobs. They let him believe he could do it.
