Bush Just Cannot Catch A Break This Week;

First He Cannot Put An Incompetent On The Supreme Court

Next, he has to rescind his actions to pay slave wages for workers in the gulf recovery project.

“WASHINGTON, D.C. - Bowing to pressure from a united Democratic front, a small group of members of his own party, the religious community, and the labor movement, President Bush announced today he would reverse the decision he made in September to remove wage protections for construction workers in the areas affected by Hurricane Katrina.”

4. Brother Jeb told Floridians they should have had supplies for 72 hrs.

It's been more than 72 hours.

Even those with supplies are getting grouchy without power. No work--although temporarily for most--no mass media. They're probably actually talking to their neighbors. Of course, some have generators--which run on gasoline.

2. But....but...but.....

He told Floridians that there are ships of gas offshore waiting to unload. No electricity with which to pump the damn gas, of course.
