Zero still equals zero

Gore Vidal, in his article in The Independant (mirror of full article for free) pointed out one of those curious rare moments of ironic truth in administration statements.

On his Katrina anniversery visit to NOLA, Bush said: "A year ago I made a pledge that we will learn the lessons of Katrina and that we will do what it takes to help you recover. I've come back to New Orleans to tell you the words that I spoke on Jackson Square are just as true today as they were then."

It's funny, and it's not, because it's true.

I used to occasionally find Bush 'darkly amusing' as well. That was before I spent a year living in the middle of his biggest domestic fuckup.

Dan - I didn't know that Gore Vidal was still alive. I guess I am out of touch more than I thought.

Add me back please sir,
