Stuff Happens

That's Rummy's infamous response to the lawlessness that sprang up in Baghdad when Bush didn't have enough boots on the ground. What will Bush and his cronies say now about the chaos in New Orleans?

Aaron Brown of CNN described the scene as something you'd expect to see in a Third World country. He also jumped on a comment by Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu of LA who tried to tell everyone to remain calm and that everything was being done. The military is on the way, Landrieu said. Then she added rather plaintively, "Get here soon."

As Aaron Brown said, The military is on the way but it's not there yet. It's not there soon enough.

Meanwhile, Bush's top staff is meeting to discuss the biggest question of the day -- how can they blame this on Bill Clinton?
