Sen. John F. Kerry jumped into the political fray surrounding the federal government's sluggish hurricane relief efforts yesterday, jetting to storm-ravaged communities with 24 tons of supplies and a pointed message for the Bush administration. ``This is not rocket science,'' the Bay State senator said before boarding a plane to Lafayette, La.

Nagin and Blanco disagree, it's apparently over their heads, no pun.

Why didn't he send that plane two weeks ago? Why did he have to call a presser calling attention to his 'good deed'? I see he has learned nothing from his defeat last year....

It must be hard to find a cargo plane with seating for "First-Class" passengers...

This from the same guy who, while addressing folks in Green Bay, called the hallowed ground of Lambeau Field, Lambert Field..

the federal government's sluggish hurricane relief efforts
What "sluggish" efforts?

Gov. Blanco still hasn't completely relinquished her control. It's as if an ambulance driver had a flat tire on the way to pick up the patient, then when she finally did get to the hospital refused to sign the papers to get the patient admitted. In such case, how much good can the hospital really do?

Well if there's one thing Bubble Boy Kerry knows about, it's rocket science. After all, he did spend time in the Canaveral training center. I think it was sometime after he got back from serving in Vietnam...
