I'd like to take a moment to thank the red states for voting in the WORST president in US history.
"Dear Mr. Bush:
Any idea where all our helicopters are? It's Day 5 of
Hurricane Katrina and
thousands remain stranded in New Orleans and need to be
airlifted. Where on
earth could you have misplaced all our military choppers?
Do you need help
finding them? I once lost my car in a Sears parking lot.
Man, was that a drag.
Also, any idea where all our national guard soldiers are?
We could really use
them right now for the type of thing they signed up to do
like helping with
national disasters. How come they weren't there to begin
with?
Last Thursday I was in south Florida and sat outside while
the eye of Hurricane
Katrina passed over my head. It was only a Category 1 then
but it was pretty
nasty. Eleven people died and, as of today, there were
still homes without
power. That night the weatherman said this storm was on its
way to New Orleans.
That was Thursday! Did anybody tell you? I know you didn't
want to interrupt
your vacation and I know how you don't like to get bad
news. Plus, you had
fundraisers to go to and mothers of dead soldiers to ignore
and smear. You sure
showed her!
I especially like how, the day after the hurricane, instead
of flying to
Louisiana, you flew to San Diego to party with your
business peeps. Don't let
people criticize you for this -- after all, the hurricane
was over and what the
heck could you do, put your finger in the dike?
And don't listen to those who, in the coming days, will
reveal how you
specifically reduced the Army Corps of Engineers' budget
for New Orleans this
summer for the third year in a row. You just tell them that
even if you hadn't
cut the money to fix those levees, there weren't going to
be any Army engineers
to fix them anyway because you had a much more important
construction job for
them -- BUILDING DEMOCRACY IN IRAQ!
On Day 3, when you finally left your vacation home, I have
to say I was moved by
how you had your Air Force One pilot descend from the
clouds as you flew over
New Orleans so you could catch a quick look of the
disaster. Hey, I know you
couldn't stop and grab a bullhorn and stand on some rubble
and act like a
commander in chief. Been there done that.
There will be those who will try to politicize this tragedy
and try to use it
against you. Just have your people keep pointing that out.
Respond to nothing.
Even those pesky scientists who predicted this would happen
because the water
in the Gulf of Mexico is getting hotter and hotter making a
storm like this
inevitable. Ignore them and all their global warming
Chicken Littles. There is
nothing unusual about a hurricane that was so wide it would
be like having one
F-4 tornado that stretched from New York to Cleveland.
No, Mr. Bush, you just stay the course. It's not your fault
that 30 percent of
New Orleans lives in poverty or that tens of thousands had
no transportation to
get out of town. C'mon, they're black! I mean, it's not
like this happened to
Kennebunkport. Can you imagine leaving white people on
their roofs for five
days? Don't make me laugh! Race has nothing -- NOTHING --
to do with this!
You hang in there, Mr. Bush. Just try to find a few of our
Army helicopters and
send them there. Pretend the people of New Orleans and the
Gulf Coast are near
Tikrit.
Yours,
Michael Moore

P.S. That annoying mother, Cindy Sheehan, is no longer at
your ranch. She and
dozens of other relatives of the Iraqi War dead are now
driving across the
country, stopping in many cities along the way (
http://bringthemhomenowtour.org/ ). Maybe you can catch up
with them before
they get to DC on September 21st."
And PLEAAASE dont post back any bullshit that Michael Moore is making things up, etc. I watching CNN right now and there are STILLLL people who havent eaten since Sunday/Monday, no place to live, nothing to drink, no clothes to where, nowhere to goto the bathroom, etc. etc. etc., literally have NOTHING. I bet they wish they were as fortunate as those Iraqis........
