Dear Mr. Bush:
Any idea where all our helicopters are? It's Day 5 of Hurricane Katrina and thousands remain stranded in New Orleans and need to be airlifted. Where on earth could you have misplaced all our military choppers? Do you need help finding them? I once lost my car in a Sears parking lot. Man, was that a drag.
Also, any idea where all our national guard soldiers are? We could really use them right now for the type of thing they signed up to do like helping with national disasters. How come they weren't there to begin with?
Last Thursday I was in south Florida and sat outside while the eye of Hurricane Katrina passed over my head. It was only a Category 1 then but it was pretty nasty. Eleven people died and, as of today, there were still homes without power. That night the weatherman said this storm was on its way to New Orleans. That was Thursday! Did anybody tell you? I know you didn't want to interrupt your vacation and I know how you don't like to get bad news. Plus, you had fundraisers to go to and mothers of dead soldiers to ignore and smear. You sure showed her!
I especially like how, the day after the hurricane, instead of flying to Louisiana, you flew to San Diego to party with your business peeps. Don't let people criticize you for this -- after all, the hurricane was over and what the heck could you do, put your finger in the dike?
And don't listen to those who, in the coming days, will reveal how you specifically reduced the Army Corps of Engineers' budget for New Orleans this summer for the third year in a row. You just tell them that even if you hadn't cut the money to fix those levees, there weren't going to be any Army engineers to fix them anyway because you had a much more important construction job for them -- BUILDING DEMOCRACY IN IRAQ!
On Day 3, when you finally left your vacation home, I have to say I was moved by how you had your Air Force One pilot descend from the clouds as you flew over New Orleans so you could catch a quick look of the disaster. Hey, I know you couldn't stop and grab a bullhorn and stand on some rubble and act like a commander in chief. Been there done that.
There will be those who will try to politicize this tragedy and try to use it against you. Just have your people keep pointing that out. Respond to nothing. Even those pesky scientists who predicted this would happen because the water in the Gulf of Mexico is getting hotter and hotter making a storm like this inevitable. Ignore them and all their global warming Chicken Littles. There is nothing unusual about a hurricane that was so wide it would be like having one F-4 tornado that stretched from New York to Cleveland.
No, Mr. Bush, you just stay the course. It's not your fault that 30 percent of New Orleans lives in poverty or that tens of thousands had no transportation to get out of town. C'mon, they're black! I mean, it's not like this happened to Kennebunkport. Can you imagine leaving white people on their roofs for five days? Don't make me laugh! Race has nothing -- NOTHING -- to do with this!
You hang in there, Mr. Bush. Just try to find a few of our Army helicopters and send them there. Pretend the people of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast are near Tikrit.
Yours,

P.S. That annoying mother, Cindy Sheehan, is no longer at your ranch. She and dozens of other relatives of the Iraqi War dead are now driving across the country, stopping in many cities along the way. Maybe you can catch up with them before they get to DC on September 21st.

"...will reveal how you specifically reduced the Army Corps of Engineers' budget for New Orleans this summer for the third year in a row..."
I read this today on a left wing website and wondered what the source was. I figured as much.
He's a real jacka$$. And I don't usually use such a description for people. Does he have such a letter drafted for Gov Blanco and Mayor Nagin? Is he aware that the flooding and sinking problems of NOLA existed even during Clinton's terms of office? Does he fully get how states work and how they operate and the job of the federal government and it's responsibility to let the states govern themselves on sooo many issues, which is why so many of NOLA's residents are stranded, because the Mayor and Gov refused to act? He is a massive tool and happy to act as one. I hope he or his peeps troll here, so they can read our responses, if they dare. We know how the left feels about criticism or debate.
Ahhhh Michael, do I smell another movie in the works?
This is an excerpt of his "Letters to Bush" chapter in his new book entitled, "How I Lost My Mind... (and lost, and lost, and lost)." The letters highlight Moore's total ineffectiveness in everything political. Cindy Sheehan has said, "Moore should have listened to me and snorted more crazy glue... (sniff sniff). " The book will be available with toilet paper binding for most restrooms across the country.
When is this ugly hate-monger going to figure out that most of America LOVES PRESIDENT BUSH and none of the lies of the left are going to bring him down?
Michael: "It's not your fault that 30 percent of New Orleans lives in poverty or that tens of thousands had no transportation to get out of town."
True enough, Michael, those things are not the fault of the president. At least you got one statement right, ya dimwit.
It's like . . . you want to post something about how ridiculous the moron is . . . but everything here is so categorically untrue that it honestly isn't worth it.
Wow.
The effect of any levee-funding cut that "they" (the Federal "they") did or didn't make is felt only in casino square footage.
I'm either dense or it's too early in the AM (maybe both). Could you elaborate?
