See? There’s plenty o’ food in Nawlins! My aunt sent me an article “that makes some good points” — it’s all about how people are misjudging poor George Bush and blaming him for the fact that he can’t save them from themselves. It’s interesting to note that, on the one hand, the Bush Regime and […]

Hmmm…. A White House spokeswoman, Michele St. Martin, said yesterday that Mr. Cooney would not be available to comment. “We don’t put Phil Cooney on the record,” Ms. St. Martin said. “He’s not a cleared spokesman.” — Andrew C. Revkin, “Bush Aide Softened Greenhouse Gas Links to Global Warming” (June 8, 2005) New York Times. […]
