The best and worst of 2004

[tw]

This is Friday - six days after the Tsunami. Today the US Navy is finally sending two battlegroups with supplies headed for the disaster. So they waited to load what was needed? No. Today a Marine General has finally been dispatched to determine what is required. Today - six days later. Let us look back at what those who support the 'moral' president said. Ships cannot leave until they know what to bring? So why are the ships leaving without information from that Marine General? The ships are leaving today because the 'moral' president finally decided yesterday to respond to the disaster. The navy could have been moving in but hours. It took days for the brain in a 'moral' president to make a decision.

This is not just a discussion about the American response to a disaster. The pathetic $35 million pledged by this mental midget president when even small France pledged $57milllion. Small Britian pledged $97 million. Tiny Sweden pledged something well in excess of $100 million. And yet the moral president raised his pathetic $15million offer to $35million when shamed by international reaction to his MBA cost control mentality. Wow. What a man! What a leader! Not an emotional expression. These are facts stated with mockery that this president has earned.

This is also a post in the face of Lookout123 who would have been responsible if he kept his religious extremist mouth shut. No. His president was rightly criticized. Morality as defined by extremist religous rhetoric was under attack. So the 'moral' Lookout123 had to post insults at anyone who would expose George Jr for the crappy leader he is. Lookout123. A better response would be to keep quite and hope we forget how pathetic a leader Goerge Jr has again proven himself.

Again, one is encouraged to look at the satellite photos that George Jr would have seen in his Presidential Daily Briefing on Sunday. Asia's Deadly Waves . Click on the first row "Photos: Impact" . Click on the second row "Before and After".

A PDB warning of the WTC attack that George Jr could not bother to read. By now, you would think the mental midget president had learned to read his memos. Learned what a leader is suppose to do. It would have been easy. No text. Just pictures. Will he now say there was nothing actionable in those photos?

George Jr could not even bother to respond to the Tsunami disaster until yesterday. Today the navy is finally leaving with supplies that could have already been there (and were deperately needed) two days ago.

Pragmatic leaders would never be so anti-American. Responsible leaders would have taken the lead last Sunday. But Goerge Jr is the type of leader that religous extremists love - such as another 'moral' president - Richard Nixon. At least Richard Nixon was enough of a 'moral' man to take the leadership role. Take charge and start moving before everyone else. George Jr finally decided on Thursday that a disaster had occured only after shamed into it by international condemnation.

Go ahead Lookout123. Defend this world standard of crappy leader. This is god's chosen president. Last night Powell got on Nightline to "try to defend" this president's response. He could not because this crap president still had no physical response to a disaster five days ago. Powell was left to hang as George Stephanopolouis showed country after country whose response exceeded the American response. The only thing Powell could say was that the American response would increase. So what? The most critical time that aid is required was many days ago - in the first hours and first days. The American president could not even be bothered to view satellite photos? Ahhh but he is a 'moral' man. Fine. He prays while people were dying. This is a man that Lookout123 respects.

ABC News showed a six year old boy who was probably going to die. Just as things looked grim, foreign medical aid arrived to save the boy's life. That was days ago. Today, the American response finally got started? Good thing that six year old did not need 'morality' to save his life. Yes, a 'moral' president needs time to find those satellite photos on his crowded desk. Go ahead Lookout123. Use that too as an excuse. Defend this 'moral' president.
