A Brief Note on Katrina
Friday, September 02, 2005
As I watch the horrors unfold, I find myself unable to speak intelligently about them. All I can say is that our response to the disaster has been worse than the disaster itself. Between the implicit racism and lack of political response, I just don't know where to direct my anger. All I can say for sure is that there is no way Bush & Co. can really believe in an afterlife, because if there is one they're definitely going to hell. Between the "my pet goat" and the guitar-strumming, it's clear that our leader is no leader at all - just the image of a leader. Which is after all what we voted for. Shame on us.
