Adam chided me — and rightfully so — for failing to provide a link for donations to the relief efforts for Hurricane Katrina. Click here or on the logo to donate to the American Red Cross. I’ll keep this post at the top until I can get the links put into my sidebars.
But as far as “playing politics” by bashing Bush? What am I supposed to do, applaud him for staying on vacation, playing golf, playing guitar, and pimping Medicare while New Orleans is washed off the map? When you go out fo your way to defend the president of your party, even when given the massive evidence of his failure to lead, THAT’S playing politics. I bashed Clinton’s ass for Rwanda and many other things, too.
When you’re the leader, you’re expected to lead. When you fail at leadership, you’re expected to take responsibility. I’m just waiting for the right-wing to figure out that this is all Bill Clinton’s fault.
