Weblinks: New Orleans, BushCo

[infrogmation]

Ms. Hollie went to Algiers RiverFest last weekend, and took some good pix of The Indians

Speaking of New Orleans pix, "W Magazine" apparently has a spread about New Orleans. I havn't seen the magazine, but some pix are on line. (I could do without the fashionista stuff, but enough local stuff to be worth a look.)

Harry Shearer's suggested headline summarizing the Federal involvement with the Katrina disaster from the ACOE levees to FEMA trailers: "Government Floods City, Then Poisons Survivors"

Speaking of Federal incompetence, Dear Leader Bush is the poster boy: Historians agree: Worst President Ever

"Glib, contemptuous, ignorant, incurious, a dupe of anyone who humors his deluded belief in his heroic self, he has bankrupted the country with his disastrous war and his tax breaks for the rich, trampled on the Bill of Rights, appointed foxes in every henhouse, compounded the terrorist threat, turned a blind eye to torture and corruption and a looming ecological disaster, and squandered the rest of the world's goodwill. In short, no other president's faults have had so deleterious an effect on not only the country but the world at large."

I was at the fest as well. Pictures 8-9 show me photographing on the left. You can identify me by the tie dye.

Hadn't had a chance to post fest pics on the journal yet, but there are on my Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/amberle/sets/72157604405058527/
