Tim Russert interviewed the President of Jefferson Parish, Aaron Broussard, on 'Meet the Press' this morning. Watch him tell the story of his co-worker's mother:
The Cavalry Didn't Come [Wonkette.com]
Broussard: 'We Have Been Abandoned By Our Own Country' [Crooks and Liars]
If this doesn't move you, then you surely must agree with Bush when he said to Mike Brown, head of FEMA: "Brownie, you are doing a heck of a job."
In fact, here's a suggestion for the Democrats: run an ad with just Broussard's words, and then cut to Bush congratulating the FEMA's director in New Orleans on Friday. No voiceover, no editing, nothing. Just those two clips, one after the other. Nothing sums up the disconnect between this administration and reality better than that.
