    Hurricane Gustav v Bush

    It is no secret that the Republican party is not exactly elated about the prospect of W having a major presence at the convention. As of right now, he's slated to speak on Monday, which would be the least watched day anyway, but since it's on a holiday, it's likely to be even less watched.

    Now, Hurricane Gustav heads towards New Orleans. For many people, Bush's handling of Hurricane Katrina is where folks starting saying "Hey, this guy is an idiot," and his downward spiral began. I expect a much more "hands-on" response from Bush this time.

    Mark my words, if Gustav's landfall is significant enough to give Bush an excuse to avoid the convention altogether, he will take it. Ironic that it was a hurricane that helped make Bush so unpopular, and it might be a hurricane that gets the GOP out of having to have him speak at the convention.

      Don't forget that Hannah is following up and projected to come into the gulf as well.

      You can't have manslaughter without laughter.

      "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

          It's official -- neither Bush nor Cheney will be at the Convention.
