Picture of Bush in Crawford during Katrina - does it exist?
Right before he cut his vacation short, I heard there was a picture of him strumming a guitar at a BBQ. Someone mentioned that they saw it on MSNBC. I searched but could not find. It might not exist, but if it does, I'd love to see it.

1. Here she blows...


Maybe it is G sharp Minor with a diminished 24th? If I recall from my guitar playing days that is the shape of the G Chord but isn't he one fret off? Is this symbolism of the federal response to Hurricane Katrina?

5. Where's his concern of the poor & black urban folk?
Yeah, he cares. Sure, he does.

8. Let them eat cake!
I know there's a Marie Antoinette let-them-eat-cake joke (albeit not funny) in there, but I can't find it. My brain is ODed on all this.

4. He was in San Diego
and that's where the photo of him strumming the guitar came from.

6. Everyone is so fast! Thanks!
Amazing. So if he was in San Diego then this was before Katrina, right? I'm having trouble keeping everything straight. Sorry.

7. No...
Katrina hit NO early Monday... I believe Bush ate cake on Monday and he strummed on Tuesday.

9. Tracking the chimp.

~snip~

Even as Katrina was bearing down on the Gulf Coast that Sunday night and early Monday, Aug. 28-29, and the National Hurricane Center was warning of growing danger, the White House didn't alter the president's plans to fly from his Texas ranch to the West to promote a new Medicare prescription drug benefit.

By the time Bush landed in Arizona that Monday, the storm was unleashing its fury on Louisiana and Mississippi. The president inserted into his speech only a brief promise of prayers and federal help.

He continued his schedule in California, and he didn't decide until the next day that he should return to Washington. But it took him another day to get there, as he flew back to Texas to spend another night at his home before leaving for the White House.

11. "Tracking the Chimp..."
What a great idea. Let's have a GPS Device on the fucker.

Or maybe just a bell around his throat, like an old tomcat.

Just a dream...

Help build Camp Katrina on The Mall!

50,000 Katrina survivors camped on Bush's doorstep. In the seat of government and media. Demanding answers and change.

13. I heard he was fuming mad about the cake picture being circulated.
So I'm certain it will never be shown again.
