Sep. 2nd, 2005 10:57 amTHEN STOP LOOKING FOR PR OPS AND FUCKING DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
And what's up with all this food and aid Canada wants to send but can't, because YOUR ADMINISTRATION SAID "NO?" How about an explanation on that one? Shitfire, man, at this point I'd say if Fidel Goddamn Castro were to call up and go "hey guys, here's some food and stuff," FUCKING TAKE IT, SAY THANKYA.
No, really. I want an explanation as to why we're refusing aid from Canada beyond what the Canadian Red Cross is giving (which, while appreciated, isn't much, relatively speaking) and I want it RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.
I swear to God we have Gary "The Smiler" Callahan in office. Every time bad shit happens, he spins it to yoink on our heartstrings and milks it for all the approval points it's worth and really, when you get down to it, he ain't doing shit. He's flying over New Orleans in a helicopter, probably waving out the window all "OMG STAY TEH COURSE!11!1"
And then there's Condi going shoe shopping and going to see Spamalot while all this shit is going down, but I'm not even going to go there.
In the interest of equal time: Mrs. Sheehan, you know I support you, but THIS IS REALLY NOT A GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO COME HERE AND WAVE YOUR BANNER, OKAY? WE'RE KINDA BUSY RIGHT NOW. Put your crusade on hold for ONE FUCKING WEEK and help some people; if you can't, then please get the hell out of the way. ...although, to be fair, she is delivering some 5000 pounds of stuff to hurricane victims. Okay, ma'am, carry on, drop off the shit and then shut the fuck up for a week or two kthxbye. The focus is not on you right now, deal with it.
I also sent a link to
interdictor to the Chronicle and told them, in so many words, to grow a spine and report something other than what AP and Reuters spoonfeeds them. Probably won't do a damn bit of good, but it's worth a shot.
